The Secretary of State for Tourism, Rosario Sánchez, and the Minister of Tourism, Jaume Bauzá, announced the extension of the agreements at a press conference, noting that administrative delays, particularly at the local council level, have hampered the implementation of all the investments. This is the third extension approved since the European Commission set the start and end dates for the projects in December 2023. </p>]]></description>
