New package is not a condition, but Chega admits to tearing up the agreement

The proposed rental law by the government faces significant hurdles, with Chega party leader André Ventura expressing dissatisfaction over the lack of government responsiveness to their demands. Despite the approval of the law in general terms, Ventura insists that without substantial amendments, the law will not pass. Chega's emergency legislative package aims to address housing issues, including limits on rent and protections for the elderly. Ventura criticizes both the current government and opposition leader Luís Montenegro for their insensitivity towards the housing crisis. He emphasizes the need for urgent action and is willing to risk a budget deficit to improve housing conditions for citizens. Ventura also condemns ongoing protests, asserting that while the cause is legitimate, the manner of protest is unacceptable.
