Answer

Why does a child in an occupation case change the response in Mallorca?

When a child is present, police and social services have to think about safety as well as legal questions. In Mallorca, that means the welfare of the child should be checked carefully during any operation, while evidence still needs to be preserved. The presence of a child does not remove legal limits, but it does make the response more sensitive.
