IL questions the reappointment of Nicolau Santos at RTP

The IL party has requested the Independent General Council (CGI) of RTP to provide all documentation supporting the reappointment of Nicolau Santos and Hugo Figueiredo to the public broadcaster's administration. They argue that scrutiny of this decision is essential due to RTP's reliance on taxpayer funding. The IL seeks access to contracts, proposals, evaluation reports, and meeting minutes related to the selection process. They emphasize the need for transparency given that RTP receives over 80% of its operational revenue from the Audiovisual Contribution. The CGI announced the reappointment of Santos and Figueiredo for the 2027-2029 term, with Santos serving a third term and Figueiredo a fourth.
