The president of PS Madeira, Célia Pessegueiro, was present at the Harvest Festival, which is taking place in Estreito de Câmara de Lobos. During the visit, she revealed her concern about the progressive abandonment of viticulture in the Autonomous Region of Madeira.

Célia Pessegueiro denounced the lack of commitment of the Regional Government towards the agricultural sector, considering that this situation is contributing to the decline of wine-growing activity in the region.

Through direct contact with local winegrowers, the socialist leader noted that many professionals in the sector face significant difficulties, although the article does not specify what these difficulties are.

Scrutiny Needed!

A new private Family Health Unit opened in Torres Vedras, concessioned by the State, serving 5,463 users without a family doctor, while 19 similar units are in the process of opening, five in the Algarve. The article questions the transfer of responsibilities from the NHS to private operators, suggesting that the Ministry of Health was unable or unwilling to hire available doctors. It also mentions rumors, denied by the Minister, about the handover of ULS Algarve to the Union of Misericórdias, and warns of a "profound reformulation" of the NHS without the necessary democratic scrutiny, recalling that PSD voted against the creation of the service in 1979 and that a 1982 decree-law on the NHS was declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court.
