"From today Spain's Socialist government embarks on a bold gamble with immigration, one of the biggest issues facing the country.
In an effort to bring illegal immigrants into the state system, the government plans to make it easier for them to get residence permits.
The idea behind this is to stop so-called 'clandestinos' (illegal immigrants) working in the black economy and to get them to pay taxes and social security."
