Statute overview

About this statute

In urgent cases, social services must act immediately, and urgent care is exempt from procedural and formal requirements. Las personas menores de catorce años en conflicto con la ley deben ser incluidas en un plan de seguimiento sobre su situación socio-familiar, elaborado por los servicios sociales competentes de cada comunidad autónoma. Minors have rights to accessible information, assistance, and protection, and minors in Spain also have listed options to seek help or make complaints. Public administrations must support minors’ access to their rights and provide child-focused policies and services; minors also have a right to access services, and their essential rights must not be harmed by lack of basic social resources. Public authorities must protect minors through prevention, detection, repair, and suitable services; they must also review protection measures periodically and apply special safeguards in age-determination and disability-related cases.
