Overview
- The Generalitat replaced Mònica Martínez Bravo with Raúl Moreno as conseller de Drets Socials, a change that was completed on Wednesday and installed Moreno from within the same department.
- President Salvador Illa told the Parlament the move is a personnel swap meant to preserve policy continuity and rejected calls for a broader cabinet overhaul.
- Governing partners ERC and the Comuns plus opposition parties including Junts, PP, Vox and the CUP said the single change is insufficient and pressed for wider replacements because of the DGAIA crisis, allegations of Martínez Bravo's absenteeism and multiple parliamentary reprovals.
- Illa signaled willingness to back Junts' bid to transfer more immigration competencies to Catalonia and said that making immigration a priority for the new conseller could form part of wider interparty bargaining.
- The executive remains politically fragile because three consellers have been formally reproved and parties are watching portfolios such as Health and Territory for likely further moves that could affect services like care placements, housing plans and rail policy.
