What are the immediate consequences of ERC's refusal to negotiate until prior agreements are fulfilled?

Oriol Junqueras, leader of the Catalan Republican Left (ERC), has announced that his party will not negotiate with the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) until previously agreed-upon accords are met. These include a new economic agreement for Catalonia, debt forgiveness, and the transfer of Cercanías (commuter rail) services. This decision affects negotiations with both the Spanish central government and the Catalan regional government.
