Algarve ULS denies having prohibited workers from attending Medicine

The Local Health Unit (ULS) of the Algarve clarified that it never prohibited its workers from attending the Medicine course at the University of Algarve, after the Socialist Party (PS) questioned the Minister of Health about alleged restrictions on employment contracts. The ULS explained that the statements by its president, Tiago Botelho, were "improperly interpreted and taken out of context," noting that it did not adopt any deliberation to that effect. The institution clarified that attending a higher education course is not considered a situation of function accumulation and that it complies with the legal provisions for worker-students, although it considers that the demands of the medical course are "hardly compatible" with the simultaneous exercise of regular professional activity.

PF reports indicate that Vorcaro funded expenses for former BC executives investigated in Master Case

Federal Police reports reveal that former banker Daniel Vorcaro funded international travel expenses for two former Central Bank executives investigated in the Master Case. According to investigators, Vorcaro organized receptions at luxury restaurants in Paris for former Banking Supervision Chief Belline Santana and paid for a Disney itinerary for former Inspection Director Paulo Sérgio Neves de Souza and his family. The PF identified receipts for transfers of 3.8 million reais to Belline in exchange for institutional favoritism, and found that both public servants exceeded their legal duties by previously reviewing draft documents, sharing confidential information, and participating in unofficial meetings to benefit the financial institution.
