Chega will insist that the additional mission assigned to the judicial police be equivalent to the remaining security forces, a proposal he intends to present as part of the state budget debate.
“Already in this budget we have committed to return to this issue and resolve what the government and the Socialist Party have failed to resolve,” André Ventura told reporters at the Assembly of the Republic.
On Tuesday, the government reached an agreement with three PSP unions and two GNR associations on the allocation of a risk premium, which would mean a gradual increase of 300 euros until 2026.
“We respect those who have accepted and we understand that for many of our guards, police, security forces, it is better to have this than nothing,” Ventura said, although he acknowledged that there is “deep resentment that has not been resolved.”
President Chegi noted that, “regardless of what has been signed,” and if the state budget for next year “becomes specialized, Chega will accept as a fundamental requirement the full application of the mission supplement, which was to apply to all security forces, and not the values that the government ascribed.”
Andre Ventura said that this would be “one of the fundamental requirements on the basis of which we will consider the document, that’s all.”
This new proposal “will be based” on the initiative that Chega put to the vote last week – to provide a mission supplement to the PSP, GNR and prison guards equivalent to that of the judicial police, replacing the “service and risk supplement for the security forces, both in their permanent and variable components” – which failed.
