The competence and the personnel of Justice have been transferred for decades to the Basque Government, but the general complement is set by the Ministry and is applicable in all the communities, which are the ones that pay the officials.
The regional governments with the competition establish other salary bonuses of their own.
Agreement with the lawyers
These mobilizations take place after the Ministry reached an agreement with the lawyers of the Administration of Justice after carrying out a strike.

The spokesman for CCOO-Justice of Euskadi, Pedro Iglesias, explained during the rally held in Bilbao that the mobilizations will continue until the Ministry also negotiates with “ordinary officials”, as it already did with the lawyers and is now doing with the judges and prosecutors.
The union demands are the stoppage of the processing of the Organic Law of Organizational Efficiency and the rise of the general supplement.
“It is a strike with the Ministry, it has nothing to do with the Basque Government”, commented Iglesias.
ALS and LAB strike
This state strike coincides with the one called by ELA and LAB directed against the Basque Government to demand the salary equalization with the tables of the approved officials of the General Administration.
They also ask for the recognition of the plus for the staff of the Courts of Gender Violence and the improvement of the “registration conditions” of the Justice staff.
Next week, again Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, the strikes will be repeated, but in this case the CCOO will incorporate the demands addressed to the Basque Government, “more than anything to be in the negotiation that could take place” later in the Basque area. EFE
