The Constitution establishes that Spaniards have the right to decent housing.

Show answer and explanation
✓ Verdadero
True. Article 47 of the Constitution recognises the right of all Spaniards to enjoy decent and adequate housing. It is a principle that guides public policy: the public authorities must promote the conditions for that right to be real, for example with rent aid or protected housing. It does not mean that the State has to give a house away to every person, but it does mean it must work to make it possible.
Spanish laws set when separation or divorce can be obtained.
- AVerdaderoTrue
- BFalsoFalse
Show answer and explanation
✓ Verdadero
True. The Constitution says that the law will regulate the forms of marriage, the age and capacity to enter it, the rights and duties of spouses, the grounds for separation and divorce and their effects. In Spain divorce has been legal since 1981. Marriages between people of the same sex have been allowed since 2005. Remember that these questions are decided by law, not by tradition or a religion.
Free public health care is only for people over 65.
- AVerdaderoTrue
- BFalsoFalse
Show answer and explanation
✓ Falso
False. The right to health protection belongs to all people, not only the elderly. Public health care is free and universal in Spain for those who meet the residence requirements, with the tarjeta sanitaria (health card). Minors, adults and older people receive care. In the case of foreign people, some requirements depend on their administrative situation, but the age of 65 is not a limit.
