Spain's conservative government has agreed with the socialist opposition to hold regional elections in Catalonia in January, the socialists say.
The elections are part of a package of measures being put in place to suspend the region's autonomy, as its leader threatens to declare independence.
Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy will announce measures to impose direct rule after a cabinet meeting on Saturday.
