The Constitutional Court nullifies Article 2 of Decree-Law 10/2025 for violating environmental protection rights

The Constitutional Court declares unconstitutional Article 2 of Decree-Law 10/2025, which amends Article 32.3.b) of Law 2/2014, for violating environmental protection in the La Albufera Natural Park. The decision is based on the finding that the measure unjustly affects public port domain and generates negative environmental impact in a protected area. The appeal concerns modifications to port regulations and DANA's environmental impact.

In 2 key points

  1. Article 2 of Decree-law 10/2025 is declared unconstitutional for violating the right to environmental protection (recurso de inconstitucionalidad n.º 2781-2026)
  2. The amendment to Art. 32.3.b) of Law 2/2014 affects public port domains and the La Albufera Natural Park (inciso indicado del art. 32.3.b) de la Ley 2/2014)

How it affects those involved

Regional administrations and port authorities lose the legal basis to implement measures to minimise the impact of the DANA (extreme weather event) in the La Albufera Natural Park. Citizens and environmental organisations gain a right to more effective protection. Administrative law advisors must update their analyses regarding port concessions and environmental assessments. The port sector faces uncertainty regarding the legality of its actions.
