Rajoy says Catalan parliament should meet on 17 January

Catalan parliament
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has said the new Catalan parliament should hold its maiden session on 17 January, the first step in reinstating local government after Madrid fired the old regional administration for illegally declaring independence.


Once the parliament is formed, potential leaders of the regional government will put themselves forward for a vote of confidence, although it could take months for a new government to emerge.

"I hope that as soon as possible we will be able to have a Catalan government that is open to dialogue and able to relate to all Catalans, not just half of them," Mr Rajoy said in an end-of-year address to the nation.
