The Government approves a savings account with tax benefits to encourage investment in the European stock market.

During a PSOE rally in Getafe, Madrid, the head of the executive, Pedro Sánchez, confirmed on Sunday that the government is "working against the clock" to approve the housing decree at the Council of Ministers on Tuesday. The president addressed Maricarmen Abascal, who was evicted from her 87-year-old home this week, directly. Sánchez assured, "Maricarmen, I have a message for you: the government is working against the clock to have the housing decree law passed on Tuesday.

I urge the parliamentary groups to make a final effort so that it is validated. This is not an ideological issue, it is a humanitarian one." The ministers of Sumar and several coalition leaders have intensified their pressure on the coalition partner to approve an ambitious housing decree on Tuesday. Sanidad's head, Mónica García, defended the package of measures including the extension of rents until July 2028, the expropriation of certain properties for speculative funds, the prohibition of evictions for vulnerable families, or the regulation of seasonal and short-term rentals. The protesters intend to remain camped at least until Tuesday.
