Inquiry commission on Luís Neves' mandates suspended during OE2027 debate

The Parliamentary Inquiry Commission into Luís Neves' mandates at the Judicial Police has voted to suspend its activities during the discussion of the 2027 State Budget. This decision was made despite opposition from the Chega and the Liberal Initiative parties. The suspension will last from October 28 to November 26, with a special meeting planned to address pending issues. André Ventura, the commission's president, initially opposed the suspension but acknowledged the lack of support for his proposal. The inquiry was established to evaluate Neves' tenure from 2018 to 2026 and any governmental responsibilities related to his appointment. It was prompted by controversies surrounding Neves, including contracts linked to a minister's property and seized chemicals.
