OE2027: PCP proposes to restore pensions of CGA retirees notified to return amounts

On November 6, the PCP proposed restoring pensions for CGA retirees notified to repay amounts in the 2027 State Budget changes. PCP leader Paulo Santos highlighted the need for increased investment in the National Health Service and public education, including career adjustments and housing support. The proposal aims to assist around 3,000 CGA retirees affected by pension cuts. Additionally, the PCP suggested integrating medical internships into the medical career and creating incentives for professionals to return to the SNS. In education, they proposed measures to ensure teachers are available for all subjects and to enhance teacher career valuation. Santos did not provide a cost estimate for these proposals, emphasizing their long-term economic impact.
