The Portuguese Government approved an extraordinary supplement for pensioners. The minister responsible for the Pensions area guarantees that this measure will not unbalance public accounts.

This extraordinary supplement for pensioners will cost about 400 million euros. The amount represents a significant financial effort, but according to the minister, it is within the country's fiscal sustainability parameters.

The government official argued that the measure is possible without compromising the balance of public finances, simultaneously ensuring support for pensioners.
