The regional administration reports that return files are blocked and warns of potential legal action if inaction continues. According to the Ministry of Family, Youth, and Social Affairs, these cases are primarily concentrated in the Hortaleza First Reception Center and the facility in La Cantueña, Fuenlabrada.
The Madrid Executive believes that returning these young individuals to their home countries and family environments is the most appropriate measure for their best interests. The Ministry, headed by Ana Dávila, has sent dozens of repatriation files since last October, yet according to their claims, no returns have been executed to date.
The situation has worsened, the regional government states, as 40 of these youths have reached the age of majority while their repatriation procedures remained pending. A report prepared by the president of the Commission for the Protection of Children and Adolescents, Silvia Valmaña, will be sent again to the Government Delegation to urge the activation of family reunification procedures and compliance with legal obligations.
Regional sources indicate that the Government Delegation's latest response was that information was still being gathered. Furthermore, the Community of Madrid has filed 16 complaints against alleged false minor immigrants for aggravated fraud, claiming they improperly benefited from public protection resources.
The regional executive is considering legal action if inaction or an unjustified refusal to process the requested repatriations persists. The Community of Madrid maintains that repatriation is in the best interest of the children, citing Organic Law 4/2000, and emphasizes that no repatriation procedure has been initiated by the Delegation.
