This Thursday, Parliament approved changes to the regime for granting citizenship to the descendants of Sephardic Jews, which include confirmation of connection with Portugal by an assessment or naturalization commission after three years of residence on the national territory.
This was a replacement text submitted by the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, Rights, Freedoms and Guarantees, which brought together the legislative initiatives of the PS, PSD, IL, BE, Livre and PAN on various aspects of the Citizenship Law.
The diploma was approved in a final global vote, with the PS, IL, BE, PAN and Livre voting in favor, and the PSD and three Socialist MPs abstaining, with Chega and the PCP voting against. In the specialty vote that preceded this vote, all SDP proposals were rejected.
