PSD demanded clarification about the closure of the Thermal Hospital of Caldas da Rainha, considering it essential to investigate what happened. The party presented a proposal at the City Council of Caldas da Rainha, which was approved today.

The municipality approved the PSD's proposal to hear in a public hearing the company responsible for managing the Thermal Hospital. The objective is to understand the reasons that led to the closure of the thermal health unit.

PSD has been pressuring authorities for a complete investigation into the circumstances of the closure. The party considers it fundamental to guarantee transparency about the decision and its consequences for the population of the Caldas da Rainha region.

Rui Rocha suggests that self-employed workers register their activity at the prime minister's address [video]

Deputy Rui Rocha, former president of Iniciativa Liberal, published a video on social media accusing the Tax Authority of penalizing self-employed workers who have their professional activity registered at their own home, by denying them the capital gains exemption benefit when selling property if the value is reinvested in purchasing a new house. The parliamentarian considers that this interpretation has no legal basis and argued that legislation will be needed to clarify the matter. In the meantime, he ironically suggested that self-employed workers indicate the prime minister's address as the activity address, in a political provocation aimed at confronting the head of Government with the consequences of the fiscal interpretation he criticizes.
