On 2 October the Spanish Congress approved the reform of the Ley de Extranjeria with a large majority. After an agreement reached by the Partido Popular (PP) and the Partido Socialista Obrero Espanol (PSOE), in which the former accepted most of the amendments proposed by the PSOE, the adoption of the law is assured. It must still undergo scrutiny by the Senate (upper chamber), but may be in force by the start of 2004. Aspects of this reform were highlighted in Statewatch vol. 13 no. 3/4.
