The first case of legal adoption for a gay male couple has been registered
in Cataluña. It follows the reform of the family law.
The couple, who have not been identified, have been looking after the child
since the summer, according to the Welfare and Family councillor from the
regional government, Carme Figueras.
There are in fact many cases in Spain of children being adopted into a gay
relationship, but up to now the adoption has been carried out by a single
person and not the couple.
In Cataluña there are 28 more cases under current consideration, 20 male
couple and 8 female couples.
