Rejected. Chega's motion of censure gave way to tax relief and extraordinary supplement for pensioners

Parliament rejected the motion of censure presented by Chega against the Government of Luís Montenegro, with the abstention of PS, BE and PCP and the votes against from PSD, CDS-PP, IL, Livre and PAN. The debate was marked by André Ventura's criticisms of the Minister of Internal Administration, Luís Neves, and by the announcement of two measures by the prime minister: a 400 million euro tax relief with IRS reduction up to the sixth bracket and an extraordinary supplement for pensioners with pensions up to 1,611 euros, totaling 800 million euros in measures. José Luís Carneiro justified PS's abstention stating that Portuguese people do not want a political crisis, while Montenegro fiercely defended Luís Neves, considering him an "excellent minister". Paulo Rangel ended the debate questioning Chega about its alignment with NATO and the European Union.
