Luís Neves, minister of Internal Administration, says he is "absolutely comfortable" with his actions and refuses to resign. This position comes on the same day as the discussion of a motion of censure against the Government in parliament.

The minister is at the center of the opposition to the executive and was heard in a parliamentary hearing in the Assembly of the Republic to provide clarifications about recent controversies.

The controversies involving Luís Neves relate to the period when he served as national director of the Judicial Police. The parliamentary hearing takes place while the debate on the motion of censure against the Government is ongoing, at a time of high political tension.
