PSD: "AR does not close and is not dispensable"

The Assembly of the Republic will remain open with essential services despite the storm Charles. The PSD opposes the government's recommendation for telework, asserting that a sovereign body should not close. PSD leader Hugo Soares emphasized the importance of maintaining essential services during adverse weather. The presence of key staff, including drivers and parliamentary support, is deemed necessary. The Assembly will provide limited access and services, including a cafeteria, while adhering to civil protection recommendations. The Livre party criticized the decision, arguing that fewer staff should be present during such conditions.
