“There is a draft. They have it in the drawer and They refuse to initiate their processing. It is because the text is scandalous and they continue to gain time, since, maybe, they have never wanted to modify a system of decorations that allows almost everything. ” Therefore, of the General Directorate of the Police (DGP) before a rule, that of decorations, which carries more than six decades without any change.
The Spanish Police Confederation (CEP) denounces that Law 5/1964 is “a nonsense because Continue to protect a rewards system that is not chaired by transparency and objectivity. “And for sample, the constant struggle in court in the face Leave hundreds of agents without the deserved professional recognition.
“Decades giving oxygen to a dying law that all police officers know what to change,” they say from this union. And both the head of Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, and the General Directorate of the Police itself know that this change is necessary. In fact, The DGP already has a draft of the law of entry into the order to police meritremember from this union.
Information that wase ratified by the general general director of the Police, Francisco Pardo, and shortly after for the head of the Personnel Division who, in a Police Council said that “There is a new standard project (…) which is prepared for when the approval is received. “However, that approval seems not to arrive despite the fact that in February 2024 a not law was approved in the Interior Commission of the Congress of Deputies , which gave free way to the elaboration of a new law of decorations.
But in case someone has any questions, this is the sequence of the facts:
- In January 2024, the Interior Minister, Fernando Grande-Marlaska ensures that one of his “priorities is a new decoration laws for the police and the Civil Guard, because they are preconstitutional laws. “
- Just a month later, the Interior Commission of the Congress of Deputies approves a non -law proposition (with 19 votes in favor, 3 against and 15 abstentions), which gives free way to Modify Law 5/1964, of decorations in the National Police.
- In June, the Secretary of State for Security, Rafael Pérez, insists: “We have an entrance draft in the WPO (…). But also taking advantage of the fact that there is a new order, I think we have to see what the criteria and procedures for the concession are. “
- We arrived at October 2024, when the police general, Francisco Pardo, acknowledges that “a elaboration job that is very advanced has been done, but it has to go through the Negotiation with trade union organizations“
- At the end of the year, the Senate Plenary approves a motion that urges the Government to “Review the requirements for the granting of decorations to the State Security Forces and Bodies. “
And we arrive at the current moment in which, in the opinion of the police, all they have done is Make promises to “gain time” and not change a comma of the standard. “Despising the rights of the police have a very low cost,” they reproach from the Spanish Police Confederation, which has been in collective conflict for more than ten months in front of the interior, in protest and “many other nonsense.” They demand The resignation of Grande-Marlaska or its immediate cessation before the accumulation of contempt and humiliations to which it submits every day to the State Security Forces and Bodies and warn that they will continue to denounce their “clamorous breach” in court.
