The Basque Governmentwants the knowledge of the Basque Country to be an instrument of cohesion in order to strengthentheprocess of integration of migrants. In this regard, the Basque Government intends to submit to the Spanish Government theproposal   to increase its capacities in the management of migration policies , which includes, of course, the issueof language.

In fact, theGeneralitat has asked the Spanish Government to include an amendment to the Royal Decree that has put in place  to regularize the situation of migrants.  The Basque Government welcomes the Catalan Government's proposal to require migrants who wish to renew their residence permit to know the co-official languages asan element of better linguistic cohesion and integration .

According to the Catalan Government, knowledge of the co-official languages is an important instrument of cohesion in order to strengthen the process of integrating migrants, and that is why it has proposed to the Spanish Government to require migrants who wish to renew their residence permit to prove that they know Catalan in this case and, if not, to prove that they are learning the co-official language.

In this context, the Government intends to submita proposal\ u00A0 to increase its capacities in the management of migration policies in the next Migration Plan to be developed through the Department of Social Welfare, but logically in collaboration with other departments, especially the Education and Language Policy, as well as with other associations and actors in the country linked to migratory flows and processes.
