The municipality of Mealhada is advocating for an urgent change to the Local Finance Law. The local mayor argues that the change is necessary to guarantee a fairer distribution of resources among municipalities.
The municipal council intends that these changes contribute to strengthening territorial cohesion, meaning to reduce inequalities between different regions of the country.
The mayor calls for greater involvement from the Central Administration in this process, showing willingness to contribute with inputs that allow achieving better results for the municipalities.
Despite the expectations, the mayor warns that "not everything was achieved," acknowledging that there are still challenges to face in negotiating these legislative changes.
