the historically protected stowage sector is again under the spotlight in Brussels. In late 2014, the European justice and ruled in favor of the Community executive, and demanded to Madrid to change legislation that was very protectionist. This still requires port operators to be shareholders of the Companies Stevedores Port Management (SAGEP) and forced to hire only workers who are members.
“ Until now, Spain has not adequately implemented the changes ” laments the EU executive, which has been told the ARA daily, has already received a warning in July 2015 in which he warned that if the legislation is not changed could return to court. Now Brussels again warned to take “quickly necessary to comply with the judgment actions.” Otherwise, “the Court may decide to impose economic sanctions.” Madrid has eight months to update the legislation.

But the truth is that Spain should have notified Brussels its legislative changes in February 2015 , months before the elections, despite the current government chose to wait for the formation of a new government and prevent strikes contrary sector reform in an election year.
