El decreto de vivienda planteará “cambios estructurales” más allá de limitar los desahucios

Spanish Housing Minister Isabel Rodríguez has disclosed that the upcoming decree on housing, set to be approved at the next Cabinet meeting, will bring about "structural changes" beyond just modifying legislation on evictions. Speaking on the La 2 program Malas Lenguas, Rodríguez expressed her commitment to presenting the decree on Tuesday with the aim of securing approval.

She acknowledged the tragic case of Maricarmen, an 87-year-old Madrid resident who had to leave her home after seven decades, indicating that the decree's changes aim to address a broader range of housing issues. Rodríguez highlighted the example of students facing difficulties finding accommodation in the cities where they pursue their studies.

She emphasized that all proposals should be ratified, and if the necessary support is not obtained, the proposed measures will not become law. The minister stressed that while the decree will limit evictions, it will also introduce structural changes, such as addressing the challenges faced by younger generations, like students unable to find housing in the cities where they wish to study.

She did not disclose the specifics of these changes, stating that the government is exploring various measures, including fiscal incentives for homeowners and discounts for tenants. Rodríguez invited the public to share their experiences and suggestions regarding the issue by emailing vivienda@elpais.es.
