The Law 3/2012 introduces quite a number of small amendments compared with the decree adopted in February (for the detailed commentary of the text, see our dispatch No. 120125), most of them of a technical nature, but the truly significant innovations of the Law 3/2012 are very few. The following are the main new contents:
