Egio recalled that in Spain, since 2007, it is mandatory to use "disability" or "person with disabilities" in normative texts, following a recommendation made in 2001 by the World Health Organization.

"This forgetfulness, already worrying, is linked to the lack of sensitivity of the Popular Party towards people with disabilities, which is reflected, for example, in the already withdrawn reform of the Civil Code, which sought to prevent people with sensory problems Marry without medical permission, or in the lack of investment in accessibility in the municipality, "he explained.
