Hearing in the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry
In the Inquiry Committee, deputies may access confidential or confidential documents. “Bes was also private…”.
Luís Montenegro will be the target of a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI), announced by Pedro Nuno Santos on Monday.
The leader of the Socialist Party (PS) does not make this request “with taste” and who knows “how hard is a parliamentary commission of inquiry.”
But he argued that “unfortunately the Prime Minister does not give us an alternative.”
In an inquiry committee in Parliament, the Deputies have access to confidential documents. And, in that sense, writes what the PS will search the Spinumviva documentsthe family company of Luís Montenegro that has originated so many suspicions.
Socialists want to find out if there is illegalities. Namely, to realize if the Prime Minister continued to work in the company when he already led this government-if he did so, he violated the exclusivity regime.
Also wants to analyze, in detail: what kind of services This company has been provided; the record of interests; the portfolio of customers from spinumviva, the payments and the values involved.
But won’t call Luís Montenegro’s family in the CPI. The target of the PS is the prime minister, not his family members.
Commission is legal?
A prime minister is required to respond to the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry-although he can answer in writing, not in person. The inquiry can last a maximum of nine months.
But the PSD still wants to avoid this CPI: will try to understand if it is cool Ask for a parliamentary commission of inquiry in this context with this subject.
Alexandre Poço, vice president of the PSD, announced this idea and warned: PS is going beyond acceptable.
“In the first place, What is the CPI? To the activity of a private company? We have to evaluate this initiative from a legal point of view, if it can advance, if Parliament can use this instrument about a private company, ”said Alexandre Poço Na.
“BES was also private”reminded Mariana Leitão (IL), simultaneously.
