Andorran Social Democrats Submit Questions on Inflation, Transport, and Job Reclassifications

Andorran Social Democrats (GPS) submit questions on protecting purchasing power amid inflation and tensions, public transport quality with rising passengers, and 2023 job reclassifications.

Key Points

  • GPS submits questions on protecting purchasing power amid inflation and geopolitical tensions.
  • Query on public transport quality with over 8 million passengers in 2025.
  • Review of 2023 job reclassifications in administration for transparency.
  • Parliamentary scrutiny on living costs, mobility, and public employment.

The Social Democratic Parliamentary Group (GPS) registered three oral questions to the Andorran Government on Friday, to be debated at the next General Council plenary session. The queries target key socioeconomic issues: protecting citizens' purchasing power amid inflation and geopolitical tensions, ensuring public transport quality despite rising passenger numbers, and reviewing 2023 job reclassifications in the general administration.

Councillor Pere Baró's question presses the executive on steps to halt the erosion of living standards, highlighting how inflationary pressures and the Iran conflict are driving up costs and risking wider social disparities. He specifically asks about targeted protections for vulnerable households in this context.

Councillor Laia Moliné challenges the Government to prove that the public transport model delivers on quality, punctuality, capacity, and safety benchmarks. Although officials have highlighted surpassing eight million passengers in 2025, she demands details on the indicators and oversight mechanisms verifying the concession's effectiveness, particularly with ongoing demand growth.

Group president Susanna Vela seeks clarification on plans to scrutinise the 2023 reclassification of administration roles, following calls from public sector unions and recent disclosures. Her question focuses on upholding transparency, fairness, and fixes for any flaws uncovered.

The registrations reflect mounting parliamentary scrutiny of pressing challenges like living costs, mobility, and public employment management. The Government has yet to respond publicly before the debate.
