La Moncloa: Further reading
The Council of Ministers has adopted new measures to facilitate access to housing in Spain, according to the Minister for Housing and Urban Agenda, Isabel Rodriguez.
She pointed out that in recent years the percentage of public housing stock has risen from 2.5% to 3.4%, which is still far from the European average of 9%.
To increase and protect this stock, the Government has created instruments such as the Housing Act and the Public Company for Housing and Land, which will guarantee that all state resources that can be converted into a home will be used for this purpose and no other.
