MADRID, July 1 (Reuters) - Spain's government on Tuesday

unveiled a draft bill aimed at promoting sustainable consumption

and reducing prices, which would ban practices such as reselling

concert tickets for profit and advertising fossil fuels, or cars

powered by them.

"This government's objective is to encourage industry's

transition towards more accessible and sustainable models,

thereby lowering prices for consumers and also making decisive

progress in environmental protection," Consumer Rights Minister

Pablo Bustinduy told reporters.

The bill would also ban "advertising based on fear" of crime

or natural disasters, and would stop companies from making false

or misleading claims about their environmental credentials, a

practice known as greenwashing.

Ads for most domestic flights will also be prohibited as the

government pushes for travellers to use electric-powered trains.

The bill will need approval from parliament, where the

government of socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is in a

minority since winning another term in a vote in late 2023.

The government has struggled to get enough parliamentary support

in the lower house to pass a series of bills and has not yet

presented a budget for this year and next.

Bustinduy, who belongs to the far-left junior coalition

partner Sumar, has launched campaigns against businesses such as

budget airlines and tourism summer rentals, with mixed results.

A court last week suspended fines of 179 million euros ($211.13

million) imposed by his ministry on low-cost carriers for

charging for cabin baggage. Some of the rental listings his

ministry had ordered to be withdrawn from platforms such as

Airbnb ( ABNB ) in May are still being advertised.
