Prime Minister António Costa said this Friday that the government takes note of the concerns expressed by the President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, in his veto of the decree-law on the reprivatization of TAP, adding that they will be “due consideration”.
A short note released by the Office of the Executive Leader said that “the Prime Minister notes the concerns of His Excellency the President of the Republic, which will be given due consideration.”
This note appeared shortly after the President of the Republic announced his veto of the government resolution defining the conditions for the reprivatization of TAR, asking for clarification regarding government intervention, the sale or acquisition of assets and the transparency of the operation.
This veto was announced through a note published on the official website of the President of the Republic on the Internet, which states that Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa “decided to return the TAP privatization diploma to the government, requesting clarification on three aspects that he considers important.” “.
The head of state asks the government to clarify “the ability of the state to control and intervene in the activities of such a strategic company as TAP; the issue of alienation or acquisition of assets even before privatization; transparency of the entire operation,” the same note says.
