Rodríguez celebrates Brussels' new housing plan and assures it supports Spanish policy

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General9 September 2026 at 13:34

Spain's Minister of Housing and Urban Agenda, Isabel Rodríguez, celebrated this Wednesday the new measures presented by the European Commission to combat the housing crisis. She argued that both the Affordable Housing Act Regulation proposal and the accompanying recommendations are aligned with the policies developed by the Spanish government in recent years.

Rodríguez stated that the European measures support Spanish housing policy, which has been a priority of the Executive during her term. The European Commission presented these initiatives as part of its efforts to address the shortage of affordable housing throughout the European Union.

The Affordable Housing Act Regulation proposal represents one of the main novelties of the European plan, accompanied by specific recommendations for Member States. The Spanish government interprets these measures as a validation of its approach to the housing problem.

Montenegro 'blames' Costa's governments for poor student results in PISA

Primeiro-Ministro Luís Montenegro attributed on Wednesday the poor results of Portugal in the PISA study to "political decisions that were also not the best", referring to the previous Socialist government led by António Costa. Montenegro considered that the country was confronted with a decrease in results in international assessment systems, with the most recent results approaching 2006 levels in the three subjects assessed, completely reversing gains previously achieved. The Government had previously rejected political responsibilities for the results, lamenting that they are "historical, but in the negative sense".
