The end of undivided inheritances? What will change and what will not yet change

Diário de Viseu31 August 2026 at 09:30

The government intends to end the perpetuation of undivided inheritances and property blockage. This intention was analyzed in a previous article by the publication. Undivided inheritances occur when heirs cannot reach an agreement on the division of assets left by a deceased person, resulting in the joint and often indefinite maintenance of those assets. Property blockage refers to the situation in which real estate and other assets are prevented from being sold, divided, or used by heirs for long periods. The governmental measure aims to create mechanisms to force or facilitate the division of these assets, allowing the property to cease being indefinitely suspended in a co-ownership situation.

Government contracted 101% of the PRR to ensure full execution despite delayed works

Portugal reached this Monday, August 31, the last day to meet the milestones and targets of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR), with the Government ensuring 100% execution and revealing that it contracted projects equivalent to 101% of the Plan to create a margin to accommodate possible delays. The Minister of Economy and Territorial Cohesion, Manuel Castro Almeida, explained in Estremoz that some works continue in progress across the country, but these do not compromise the obligations assumed with the European Commission, as they are interventions financed by the additional margin. The PRR mobilized more than 22 billion euros, with 403 thousand approved projects, 44 completed reforms and 117 investments, with housing exceeding the target of 26 thousand homes, with more than 28 thousand completed. Portugal will submit in September the last payment request to the European Commission, expecting to receive the final disbursement by the end of 2026.

The article analyzes Canada's response to the trade war launched by Donald Trump, arguing that instead of submitting to American demands, the country is affirming its sovereignty and strengthening internal unity under Mark Carney's leadership. The text describes how the United States' economic pressure is producing the opposite effect to that intended, transforming an unequal conflict into an opportunity for Canada to demonstrate autonomy and diplomatic strategy in the face of what it considers to be Washington's aggressive stance.
