The communities governed by the PP have not attended the Sectorial Conference of Children that were going to address that they remain in the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla. Before the PP councilors – the head of the Ceuta Autonomous City has been present – the meeting was not held due to the lack of Quorum for decision making. The popular argue that the Government intends to impose a “forced” and “illegal” distribution that violates the principle of territorial equality.
The meeting was summoned at 9.30 am under the presidency of the Minister of Youth and Childhood, Sira Rego, and was paid angrily due to the positioning of the popular. The agenda included the approval of the distribution of the extraordinary credit of 22 million euros by 2025 to which the Tuesday Light of Ministers gave green with the objective of “guaranteeing the support” of the reception systems in the Canary Islands (8.5 million), the Balearic Islands (2), Ceuta (7) and Melilla (4.5). The Executive also sought to achieve this Thursday the support of autonomies to the package of 100 million euros aimed at financing the costs associated with over -occupation and transfers, as well as informing of the decree that will regulate the ordinary capacity of the protection systems of these minors and that the Government foresees to approve on August 26.

“Racist debts of [Alberto Núñez] Feijóo with the Lord [Santiago] Abascal will be paid by people living in the Canary Islands, in Ceuta, Melilla and Balearic Islands, because we will not be able to transfer this resource that should be approved at the meeting, ”he criticized Rego after confirming the suspension of the conference.
Some PP autonomies have shown for months a strong opposition to the government’s distribution proposal and 11 have filed against the decree approved last March. The Ministry ensures that the absence of the popular will not involve an effective blockade of this norm. “We have an opinion of the State Council that enables us to continue working. An autonomous community cannot be erected in a judge and part. They have every right to present the resources they deem appropriate before the Constitutional, but they must let it be the judges who determine what is the result of these resources,” the Youth Minister said very firm. “What is unheard of is that in a democracy that presents a resource determines that the appeal already enables him to breach a law (…). Meanwhile, the law approved in the Congress of Deputies is a law that must be applied,” added Rego, which has assured that it will be.
The Minister has announced that her department plans to take the Ordinary Capacity Decree to the Council of August 26, that is, the children who can host each system and the financing associated with it. “From the Government we continue working with determination to be in disposal, as of August 28, to start with the transfers of these children who have rights and come from very hard migratory processes. In a democratic society we must be able to host them with dignity,” he concluded.
The objective of the Executive is to relocate about 4,400 migrants from the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla to other territories, most of Andalusia, the Community of Madrid and Community Valencian. However, it is very likely that the number ends up being lower, among other things because, while everything is resolved, adolescents are fulfilling the age of majority.
Aval to the Supreme
The Minister of Territorial Policy, Ángel Víctor Torres, has also loaded against the attitude of the popular this Thursday. “They believe that they give a plant to the Government, but in reality they give a plant to the Canary Islands and the children in the islands, which must be welcomed by law in the rest of the autonomous communities. One more”, before putting as an example the “obstacles” of the Community of Madrid to the transfer of asylum applicants and announce that this position “forces the government” to ask for the “endorsement to the supreme, to do so with guarantees.”

On July 9, the Minister of Family, Youth and Social Services, Ana Dávila, threatened to “exercise as many legal actions,” if the Ministry continued with its intention to refer the community of Madrid to 400 minors asylum seekers from the Canary Islands, a decision that was produced, denounced “without any official communication by the Government of Spain.” Although asylum applicants depend on the State, the counselor alleged in her letter that the community “legally responsible for the protection of minors” in their territory is.
