Consell Executiu

The Consell Executiu is the executive branch of the Generalitat de Catalunya, the autonomous government of Catalonia. It functions as the cabinet, responsible for policy-making and administration within the region. Recent news highlights the Consell Executiu's activities and personnel changes. The return of Esther Niubó, the Consellera de Educació y FP (Minister of Education and Vocational Training), after a period of absence due to illness, is noteworthy. Her return involves meetings with the President and colleagues during a Consell Executiu meeting. Furthermore, the Consell Executiu approved a significant investment of 240 million euros in the Programa d'Actuació de la Bicicleta 2026-2030, aimed at expanding and improving cycling infrastructure in Catalonia. In contrast, Xavier Güell, the director general of Centros Concertados y Privados (state-funded private schools), has resigned from his position within the Govern. These events demonstrate the Consell Executiu's ongoing involvement in key areas such as education, infrastructure, and governance, reflecting its significance in the daily life and future development of Catalonia.
