Vitoria, (EFE).- The President of the Government and leader of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, has announced two measures that are going to be implemented this week, one so that cancer patients do not have to renew their driving license every three years and another so that the disabled can access a pension in five years.
Sánchez has made these two announcements in Vitoria in an electoral act, in which he has also recalled that the European Commission has improved its economic forecasts for Spain on Monday, an improvement before which the right only speaks “of ETA”.
The first ad is about cancer patients who are discriminated against because the right to be forgotten did not exist and they had difficulty taking out a mortgage or signing insurance. Last Saturday in Seville he announced that in July this right to be forgotten oncology will be a reality.
Today it has added a nuance: these patients who have suffered from cancer currently have to renew their driving license every three years, not every ten. The Government is going to eliminate this three-year discrimination, and it is going to make it a reality this week through a ministerial order that does not need to go through Parliament.
The second announcement, which will be approved tomorrow by the Council of Ministers, is to adopt a recommendation from the Toledo pact, specifically, that people with disabilities equal to or greater than 45 percent, who currently have to wait fifteen years to access to early pensions, they only have to wait five.
