Barlavento11 September 2026 at 12:10

Chega party demanded answers from the Government regarding the situation of the Hematology specialty in the Algarve and Baixo Alentejo. The political force questioned the Ministry of Health about the number of specialists in the region, the types of existing contracts, and the absence of underserved positions in these areas of the country.

Chega expressed particular interest in knowing the number of professionals assigned to the hospitals of Beja and Portimão, as well as the nature of their employment contracts. The party intends to obtain detailed information about the clinical response capacity of these health units.

The lack of specialist doctors in Hematology in these regions of southern Portugal has been raising concerns about patients' access to specialized healthcare in this clinical area. The party wants to understand how the Ministry of Health is addressing these healthcare gaps.

Judicial proceedings to 'stop' Pisão Dam return to 1st instance – Mayor

The judicial proceedings filed to stop the construction of the Pisão Dam, in Crato, have been returned to the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Castelo Branco by higher courts due to procedural errors. The president of CIMAA, Joaquim Diogo, stated that the judge is preparing to hear residents, technicians, and witnesses. Construction works have been suspended since May, after the Central Southern Administrative Court ruled in favour of four environmental associations. In parallel, CIMAA proceeded with the signing of a 14.6 million euro contract for the hydraulic infrastructure work to supply water to the Póvoa e Meadas Water Treatment Plant, a project it considers can proceed as it has its own environmental impact statement. The overall project, valued at over 220 million euros, will occupy 10,000 hectares and involves the submersion of the village of Pisão.
