A microphone captured a tense moment at the general assembly of Las Cortes Valencianes this Wednesday when a participant publicly questioned the proceedings, asking, in effect, what was happening during a pivotal budget debate. The moment offered a rare glimpse into the assembly’s atmosphere as officials and observers watched closely how questions and comments unfold in this high‑stakes setting. During the session, after the discussion centered on revisions to the 2024 Generalitat budget law, the president of Las Cortes addressed the room, confirming plans to proceed with a vote. The question from the floor drew attention again and again as attendees reflected on the mechanics of the vote and the tools available to track its progress. The incident underscored the pressure among lawmakers to maintain order while ensuring that every procedural step remains transparent to the public and to the media covering the event.
