The term ‘full coffers “never again hear in plenary by the voice of the Minister of Finance, but Maria Luís Albuquerque emphasized the benefits of” financial cushion “to something” goes wrong around us. ” In a formal PCP on the “continuation of politics of troika by the Government,” the communists criticized the “resumption of propaganda” and insisted on renegotiating the debt.
At the start of the debate, after hearing the CFP by Mr Francisco Lopes talk about the increase in public debt, the finance minister said there were hidden debt: “The debt has not increased, appeared. The debt already existed, just not show up. ” Within this debt “is also a financial cushion that allows us to tell the Portuguese that we will not be afflicted to pay salaries and pensions because we have reserves to cope with such difficulties.” A scenario that contrasts with the “Greek government is negotiating the program and has no money in the coffers to make ends meet.” Maria Luís Albuquerque went just wide of Portugal expression “has the full coffers,” he said in a party meeting a few weeks ago and it caused controversy, even taking the prime minister to go on the defense minister to emphasize the importance of the country have a . “financial cushion”
Now Miguel James the CFP, has not forgotten the words of the minister and noted: “The coffers are full of debt to pay off debt.” At issue are the 8000 million in interest, which “could” finance a new National Health System “, called the deputy, after criticizing the” propaganda of the resumption of Government “that” clashes with reality. “” would have us believe that we are almost there, missing just a little longer, “continued Mr Maria Luís Albuquerque broke this idea -.” I wish that only lacked a little “- but was keen to point out that the Government is considering not impose” new sacrifices “although the recovery has to be” cautious “.
In view of the proposal of the Communists for debt renegotiation, Maria Luís Albuquerque countered:” In a year we fail to pay interest on debt negotiation and then we .?. And the next many investments had just up the wealth is not generated by a miracle year. “The ruler of the PSD / CDS coalition eventually led the debate for a more ideological side:” The communist regimes fell because not all created wealth for his people. Capitalism has created wealth and people have improved their standard of living. “
Speaking of resumes extended by the Government deserved criticism from the PS, which showed the unemployment figures as evidence that the narrative is offset. “How do you explain that, with low interest rates and the oil price fall, employment is six months to fall continuously. Madam Minister, what is happening to us? “, Launched Pedro Nuno Santos. The minister did not explain – said were “surprises” on the way and returned the barb:. “Unemployment rose always in the socialist era and then Mr was not concerned”
The Left Bloc and the Party Ecologist Greens insisted on the issue of deferred taxes in banking and which led the European Commission to open an investigation into whether Portugal and three other countries have illegal aid to financial institutions. The minister said that “when the banks are able to turn these deferred tax assets on tax credits, the state gets the equivalent of 110% of the amount in shares.”
The bloquista Mariana Mortágua snapped “Privatization to ANA, TAP, because there can be no public support, but allow deferred taxes for Portuguese banks no longer a problem and faces to the European Commission”
At the end of the debate. the socialist John Galamba would counteract the minister about the hidden debt. “The debt did not appear, was not hidden. This Government and the Minister of Finance always increased the debt. The first estimate expected to increase only 6% [current value] . It has to do with hidden debt or to change the perimeter. “After an exchange of words on debt numbers, the minister hinted some disappointment on the response that the Government received by the PS as a contribution to the Covenant Stability and Growth, which has to present in Brussels. Is that António Costa sent only its Agenda for the Decade.
