On Monday, the Euskalduna Palace in Bilbao hosts the international congress on housing policies organized by the Basque Government. At the same time as the opening ceremony was established, Argilan - ESK, Berri Otxoa and the Socialist Housing Union of the Basque Country have concentrated. The Basque Government denounces the “cuts” to benefits to achieve “decent housing”, No to the cuts to housing rights. Under the motto "Combat the institutional farce".

The organizers of the protest say that the government has cut housing access benefits and that “these resources are being withdrawn for people and precarious living units”. Two measures that have influenced the possibility of access to decent housing are mentioned: the new Law of the Basque System of Inclusion and Income Guarantee, which redefines the concept of residence, and the creation of the Economic Housing Benefit (PCV), which will replace the existing ones.

Demonstration on 24 February

Argilan - ESK, Berri Otxoa and the Socialist Housing Union of the Basque Country will be holding a demonstration on 24 February, at 12:00 p.m., against cuts, criminalisation and impoverishment, at Plaza Moyua in Bilbao. They will also denounce the “cutbacks” that are taking place in social benefits.
