Overview
- The package heads to the floor Monday, 16 February for general debate with a potential vote Tuesday, requiring an absolute majority of deputies.
- Deputies who change groups would transfer only 50% of their funding quota to the new group, with the remainder staying with their original group.
- A switch would trigger automatic loss of offices in the Chamber’s presidency and in committee presidencies, with the Speaker excluded from forfeiture.
- The funding penalty would not apply when at least seven deputies move together in a split recognized as political by House rapporteurs.
- The reform also removes the 24‑hour wait before confidence votes, streamlines timelines for urgent bills, strengthens opposition guarantees, and moves forward as the League prepares a separate bid to amend Article 67 to introduce a binding mandate.
