Portuguese Proposal To Increase Low Pensions Rejected

TSF Notícias Lisbon 14d13d Impact 3

The Portuguese Communist Party confirmed the death of José Santa Bárbara. Santa Bárbara was the author of nine album covers for artist José Afonso. The party noted his legacy as a prominent Portuguese artist and a dedicated communist militant. The Socialist Party is seeking the approval of an extraordinary, long-term supplement to improve the lowest pensions. João Luís Carneiro stated the party will support the budget if the government provides this supplement. The proposal aims to address financial needs for low-income retirees. The party is questioning the Prime Minister on whether this supplement will be available following previous budget discussions. The Socialist Party indicated it would support the measure if it is approved. A commentator stated that citizens on minimum pensions can only afford two baskets of essential goods per month at 260 euros each.
