What changed
Galicia's consolidated gender equality law (Decreto Legislativo 2/2015), which had unified multiple regional equality and gender-based violence laws into a single text, was fully repealed on 31 December 2023. It has been replaced by new equality legislation (BOE-A-2024-2663). During its eight years in force it set out equal opportunities policies, anti-discrimination rules, and gender violence provisions for all Galician administrations and employers.
Who is affected
Galician public administrations, businesses, and civil society organisations that operated under this framework must now comply with the 2024 replacement law. Individuals with pending equality claims or proceedings may need to check whether the new law applies to their situation.
What to look out for
→ This law has been repealed. Those dealing with gender equality matters in Galicia should consult the 2024 replacement legislation (BOE-A-2024-2663).
