The majority of the Partido Popular and Vox members in the Castilla y León regional parliament rejected the PSOE's request to strengthen monitoring and control of the Asian hornet. They argued that a protocol has been in place for ten years and that the regional government continues efforts to eradicate this invasive species, which harms bees and hives. This was stated by PP representative Ángel Porras during the Environment Committee session. He responded to PSOE parliamentarian Sergio García, who acknowledged existing efforts but said they are insufficient. García called for increased measures to support beekeeping and improve coordination with municipalities.
