The independent councilors Luís Filipe Santos and Jorge Afonso Freitas presented two requests to the municipal executive of Funchal. The requests aim to obtain clarifications about a future athletics track at RG3 and about preventive measures approved by the Regional Government for the Amparo area, in São Martinho. The councilors also want more information about a protocol with the Portuguese Army, signed in September last year. The requests were presented at the end of the City Council meeting, according to a note sent to the press.

PSP: Lisbon Area Operates with "Minimum Staff" for Needs

The commander of the Lisbon Metropolitan Command (Cometlis) of the PSP warned that the Lisbon area is operating with "minimum staff" for all needs, advocating for more police officers in the country's largest command. With nine municipalities and approximately three million inhabitants, Cometlis has only six thousand police officers to also cover major events and security of sovereign bodies. Luís Elias highlighted that Cometlis' staff is larger than the Portuguese Navy or the Judicial Police, but resources are not abundant. Regarding the 200 police officers promised by the prime minister in May, the commander stated that a training course ends in December and a significant part should be assigned to Cometlis. Regarding the restructuring plan that includes the closure of police stations in Lisbon, Porto, and Setúbal, Luís Elias stated that in some cases it does not involve closure but rather the reconversion of police stations, with the aim of placing more police officers in operational functions on the street.

Discord has ten days to present a proposal to protect users

The Federal Justice in the Federal District granted a ten-day deadline for the Discord platform to present a conciliation proposal in an action filed by the federal government, which demands measures to protect women, children, and adolescents on the internet. During the first hearing of the case, with participation from the AGU and the MPF, Discord expressed intention to present protocols to receive notifications about sextortion cases, content moderation mechanisms regarding animal abuse and cruelty, as well as measures to preserve user data for potential requests from investigations. Before the legal action, the government attempted an out-of-court settlement but considered the measures presented by the platform insufficient.
