The Catalan parliament on Wednesday supported the conclusions of a commission created to study the process of the region's secession from Spain, local media reported.
Earlier in the day, the parliament discussed the report prepared by the parliamentary commission. The conclusions of the commission include the points of secession's terms and a referendum on a new regional constitution.
According to The Spain Report newspaper, the commission's decisions were supported by 72 lawmakers from the pro-independence Catalan Junts pel Si (Together for Yes) coalition and their allies from the left-wing Popular Unity Candidacy (CUP).
