Overview
- Galicia’s social policy chief Fabiola García announced new resources and dedicated facilities to host unaccompanied migrant children relocated by the central government.
- The regional government says it has been assigned 317 minors by Madrid and expects a further 15 asylum-seeking children transferred under a Supreme Court order.
- The Xunta has begun identifying possible locations, opened talks with child-protection organizations, and will seek cooperation from other administrations.
- Opposition parties BNG and PSdeG condemned the plan, calling the proposed facilities “guetos,” while the PSdeG argued the real intake would be at most 244 across 2025–2026 and accused the PPdeG of racist and xenophobic positions.
- Galicia, alongside ten other regions, has filed an appeal to the Constitutional Court and signals it will continue contesting the government’s redistribution decree.
