The report is based on the research carried out by the Committee of experts on the reform of the Spanish regional financing system, created by Spain’s Conference of Regional Government Presidents on January 17, 2017. The Commission is made up of 21 experts who for the past 7 months have been analyzing the changes needed to create a new regional financing model based on the principles of solidarity, sufficiency, horizontal equity, transparency, fiscal responsibility while guaranteeing the access of citizens to public services.
One of the Committee members is Francisco Pérez, Ivie Research Director, appointed by Valencia’s Regional Government to represent the Valencian Community.
The final report, submitted to the Spanish Ministry of Finance on July 26, 2017, gathers the conclusions and proposals to remodel the current regional financing system, as well as a final chapter that includes particular votes presented by some of the members.
