Public Appropriation Law

Law 13/22 of 25 May – the Public Appropriation Law – came into force on 26 May. This new law establishes the legal rules applicable to public appropriation and it expressly repeals Law 3/76 of 3 March, which regulates the economic policy and resistance, and Law 1/82 of 2 February, which regulates the powers of the Council of Ministers regarding nationalisations and confiscations. Moreover, the new law applies to processes that are currently underway.
