Prime Minister's Minister says workers "do not want" to go back on governance rules at Lusovaca

Correio da Manhã14 September 2026 at 12:12

The Minister of the Presidency, António Leitão Marques, stated that workers at the Lus news agency do not want to go back on the governance rules that were changed. The statements come in the context of a restructuring of the agency that has generated public debate.

The Regulatory Entity for Social Communication issued an opinion on the situation, considering that the restructuring of the Lus agency is not in compliance with the applicable regulatory framework. The ERC identified irregularities in the reorganization process.

The government official countered the regulator's criticisms, noting that there is a clear position from workers against reversing the implemented changes. The Lus agency is an entity of public interest essential to the national information system.

Why this matters

Portuguese readers are directly affected by this controversy, as Lusovaca is the national news agency that serves as the primary source of information for the media. The regulator's decision raises concerns about transparency and legality in the governance of a public body crucial to the country's information ecosystem.
