Élia Ascensão expressed criticism regarding the rules of European funds, calling for greater predictability in the financing processes. The intervention comes in the context of debates about the management and distribution of European funds.
The official defends that municipalities should play a more active role and have greater participation in decisions related to European funds. This position reflects concerns about the lack of involvement of local authorities in decision-making processes.
The complaints focus on the unpredictability of the rules applicable to European funds, which hinders the planning of municipal projects. Ascensão alerts to the need for clearer and more stable conditions for municipalities to access these funds.
The theme is part of a broader discussion about decentralization and the role of local governments in the implementation of policies funded by the European Union.
