Overview
- Two of three associations representing DANA victims left the visitors' gallery during Carlos Mazón’s speech, and the third skipped the session after stating it wants to hear him in a judicial venue.
- PSPV and Compromís deputies followed the walkout from Les Corts, while Vox lawmakers stayed in their seats.
- Victims’ leaders, including Rosa Álvarez of the Asociación Víctimas Mortales, demanded Mazón’s resignation and accused the government of lying to them.
- Mazón announced a €30 million package that includes housing aid of up to €20,000 per family covering 10% of a new home for about 1,500 households, with the line slated to open in October.
- The plan also provides a €2,500 Cheque Bebé per child via a prepaid card usable in affected municipalities and a one-off €500 grant for school materials, as he coupled the aid with proposals to rename the AVL, create a new identity law, rewrite land-use rules, cut taxes, and he faces an ongoing judicial probe into the 229 deaths.
