In the face of the social security study the government has already warned not to touch on the subject. From the PS to BE it is ensured that sustainability is guaranteed. Are politicians afraid of this subject?
Conclusions of the Social Security Reform Working Group were released this Tuesday. Liberal Initiative notes positively to the "direction" of some proposals, BE and PCP criticize.
Socialists demand distribution of the report and urge government to position itself quickly. Communists warn for strategy that withdraws rights and paves the way for privatization of social security. BE accuses report of trying to create alarm and mistrust. Everyone refutes the report's creative accounting to deny social security sustainability.
Liberals argue that the report confirms the need for reform. The Socialist Party (PS), Livre, the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP), and the Left Bloc (BE) dispute the study's main conclusions.
Liberals argue that "part of the surplus of Seguran a Social a stico accounting effect" and consider that "none of this should be a surprise".
The BE today accused the Social Security Reform Working Group of "accounting trick" and "torture of numbers" to scare the Portuguese about the sustainability of the system, asking for the hearing of the Minister of Labour and these experts.
