The basic organic structure of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs was approved by Royal Decree 562/2004 of 19 April, and subsequently developed by Royal Decree 1600/2004 of 2 July, which in its article 1.6 collects the membership of the autonomous body Institute of Youth to the head of the department.

The autonomous body Instituto de la Juventud was created by Royal Decree 1119/1977, of 20 May, which integrated it into the Presidency of the Government through the Secretariat of Family, Youth and Sport, with the functions of management of the centres, services and establishments of the State in the service of youth, activities in favour of young people and study and investigation of youth issues. It was a large number of young people, whose development and management of the tasks entrusted to them was attributed to the Youth Institute five sub-directorates-general.

After its membership in different ministerial departments and various variations in the objectives and functions of the organism derived mainly from the transfers in the matter to the autonomous communities, the Royal Decree 565/1985, of 24 April, establishing the basic organic structure of the Ministry of Culture and its autonomous bodies, in its title V, develops the nature, purposes and functions of the Youth Institute, according to the criteria general simplification and rationalisation of the administrative structures and containment of the public expenditure.

Royal Decree 2614/1996, of December 20, of organic structure and functions of the Youth Institute, establishes the current regulation.

Later, and in compliance with the provisions of the third transitional provision of Law 6/1997, of April 14, of the Organization and the Functioning of the General Administration of the State, Article 60 of Law 50/1998, of 30 December, of fiscal, administrative and social order measures, granted to the Youth Institute the status of an autonomous body provided for in Article 43.1.a) of that Law 6/1997 of 14 April, and adapted its system The legal basis for these in the law is therefore necessary to transfer the forecasts for regulatory regulation of the Institute.

At present, it is necessary to redefine the aims of the Institute on the basis of the present needs of the young population in order to be able to implement government policies in this field, based on values of solidarity and equality, and seek the conditions for the participation of young people in the political, social, economic and cultural development of Spain.

The restructuring of the agency is carried out under the provisions of article 63.2 of Law 6/1997 of 14 April of the Organization and the Functioning of the General Administration of the State, following the same principles of rationality and effectiveness that have been present in the recent restructuring of the ministerial departments.
