Mataró residents following council policy can consult the official record of the municipal spokespersons’ board, which lists three institutional declarations considered on Tuesday 3 March 2026. The published agenda concerns housing leases, education planning and the European Union-Mercosur agreement, rather than a declaration on Catalonia’s right to self-determination.

The first text, submitted by En Comú Podem, calls for the extension and application of lease renewals for primary homes and action against property speculation in Catalonia. For tenants, it is a political declaration by the council rather than a published change to local housing rules.


Three declarations recorded for 3 March

  • An En Comú Podem declaration on lease extensions for primary homes and action against speculation, recorded with a total vote of 18 to 9.
  • A PSC declaration seeking participatory education planning, opposing segregation and calling for consistency with city agreements, recorded with a total of 13 to 14.
  • An ERC declaration defending food sovereignty and opposing the EU-Mercosur agreement, with 27 votes recorded in the official entry.

The municipal spokespersons’ board is the forum in which Mataró’s political groups consider institutional declarations before they are published by the Ajuntament, the city council.

Residents can check the published agenda and attached documents through Mataró City Council’s official spokespersons’ board page.
