The Council of Ministers recently approved the new Sustainable Development Strategy 2030, which includes the long-awaited universal childcare allowance, or in other words, the aid of 200 euros per dependent child per month (€2,400 per year). The Spanish government's dual objective with this measure is, on the one hand, to provide financial assistance to families and, on the other, to combat poverty and child exclusion, which currently affect one in three children in Spain. But when will it come into effect? ​​Will all families have access? Will it replace other forms of aid? Will it affect income tax returns? Creatures We have spoken with the Ministry of Social Rights, Consumer Affairs and Agenda 2030 to resolve these and other questions that have been sent to us by our readers through our social media channels.
