Controversy Surrounds Health Minister's Dismissals

The Socialist Party (PS) has announced a request for a parliamentary hearing with the Minister of Health, Ana Paula Martins, following the recent dismissal of the boards of three Local Health Units (ULS). The party alleges that the government's motivations behind these dismissals were rooted in partisan management rather than professional criteria.

The PS claims that this action not only undermines the integrity of these health institutions but also politicizes health management, which should remain independent and focused on public service. The party is demanding clarity on the criteria used for these appointments and dismissals to ensure that the principles of good governance are upheld within the health sector.
