Answer
What support should Palma offer people leaving the old prison?
People leaving the building need more than a deadline; they need a realistic transition plan. That can include temporary shelter, medical support, help for elderly or ill residents and clear contact with social services. Without that, a forced eviction can quickly turn into a wider social problem in Palma.
