The Ministries of Home Affairs and Defense, which oversee the security and military forces, are not promising short-term measures such as implementing a mission addendum for PSP and GNR. This fact makes trade unions and associations impatient: sergeants of the armed forces promise that they will be present at the demonstration on April 25 in Lisbon.
Interior Minister Margarida Blasco will receive on April 22 five GNR associations and six PSP trade unions. An official source reported this CM “It is too early to say what will be discussed.” “We are working with the Ministry of Finance to improve the conditions,” he explained, without specifying whether a decision would be made on an additional payment to the mission equal to the amount of the judicial police, worth 1,026.85 euros, demanded by PSP and GNR.
Defense Minister Nuno Melo told Expresso on Friday that the response “from the police and the military must be on the same level”, without revealing specific measures. The Armed Forces Sergeants Association is calling for decisions on pay, sick leave and promotions.
