Carmen Susín: “There are profiles of complex minors for which we have no tools”
The Minister of Social Welfare and Family of the Government of Aragon, Carmen Susín, denounced on Wednesday the situation around the fire of the minors center of Teruel. “There are complex profiles for which we do not have tools,” Susin has protested, about cases that, in his opinion, would respond more to the reform mechanisms than to current protection.
The head of the branch has stressed that it is “very complex life trajectories” and each one arrives with “associated problems” or even pathologies, although it has not implemented in the specific case of the minor detained by the events of Teruel. According to his words, the “protectionist” character of the childhood law prevents these cases from entering reformatory.
Regarding the Turolense Center, the counselor pointed out that users “coexist normally” and can move inside the city, schools or training centers or even travel to other autonomous communities, as happened with the alleged author of the fire last May. Communication between regional administrations to protect these cases is also common.
In this sense, Susin explained that the nine injured in the fire were treated urgently at the time of the facts and relocated. The remaining two were “turning around and returned by their own foot,” he continued. “From there to say that the two were going to burn the center …”, he regretted.
No date for reopening
Regarding the situation of the workers, one was discharged at a few hours and the other went to plant after being admitted to the ICU at the beginning. The state of the latter is unknown and, in addition, the counselor has appealed to prudence after being asked about the reopening of the facilities. Nor is there yet an economic assessment of the damage, the departure that the Government of Aragon wants to claim to the Generalitat of Catalonia, the person in charge of the guardianship of the minor allegedly involved and where the autonomous executive wants him to comply with his hypothetical sentence, if it is determined.
As Susin has pointed out, the DGA also has young people of this type in other communities, although it has not specified a number. He has also loaded against the “open -door policy” and has responsible for the government of Spain to generate “a problem” of which they should take care.
About to meet a year of the scandal at the Ateca Children Center, Susin has defended the action of the Ministry, although it is still waiting for judicial instruction. For example, with the increase in places. The implementation of the Workers’ Registry announced last year and whose processing has advanced in recent months is also pending.
