The Government approves the 'single command' in Ceuta for coordination in the "return and repatriation" of immigrants
The Council of Ministers has approved this Tuesday, August 25, a new asylum law and a reform of the Foreigners law, as announced by the Government spokesperson and Minister of Inclusion, Social Security and Migrations, Elma Saiz.
The Spanish government has taken measures to address the migrant crisis in Ceuta, a city that has seen over 80,000 migrants enter from Morocco since late July. A new "single command" led by Ángel Víctor Torres will oversee coordination between authorities and administrations. The government has also approved a new asylum law and a reform of the Foreigners' Law, aimed at adapting Spain's legal framework to the European Migration and Asylum Pact.
The situation in Ceuta is considered "extraordinary" and requires a special response, with the government pledging to provide resources for as long as needed.
