• It's the one-year mark of the Parliament elections that marked the beginning of a new political stage in Catalonia with PSC's victory.
• The political climate in Catalonia has been more relaxed since Illa's arrival and his motto of “Unite and serve”.
• The economy shows signs of stability, with the return to Catalonia of some of the main companies that had abandoned it during the turbulent days of the independence process.
• The Govern has not approved budgets for the current year, leading them to resort to credit supplements.
• Essential services such as Rodalies continue to cause problems.
• It is too early to say whether Illa's Govern will be able to achieve one of its toughest goals: the construction of 50,000 new protected homes.
• Illa's commitment to obtaining unique financing for Catalonia is a challenge and part of the success of his legislature.

Conclusion: Illa's government has made some progress in the political and economic climate of Catalonia, but there is a way to go and significant challenges, such as the approval of budgets, improving the Rodalies service, and the singular financing. Illa needs to present results soon.
