The first phase of the report by the Commission of Experts on Regional Funding, appointed by the Valencian Parliament analyzes the problem of the regional funding system on the Valencian Community based on the current model that has been in force since 2009 and the underfunding and its effects on the welfare state.

The second phase establishes a solid basis for the proposal for a new funding model for the Spanish Autonomous Communities, offering a more equitable funding system that ensures that services can be provided under the same conditions to all citizens regardless of their place of residence.

The proposed general framework is simpler and more transparent, and more equitable and stable than the current one. Its adoption would put an end to the financial discrimination suffered by some regions, particularly the Valencian Community and it would also offer a horizon of sustainability to the important functions of the Welfare State entrusted to the Spanish regions.
