The proposal put forward by the Socialist Party (PS), which gained support from the socialists and the PSD, CDS-PP, Livre, PAN, and JPP (with BE absent), aims to establish an Independent Technical Commission (CTI) to analyze the August wildfires. This commission will be comprised of 12 experts recognized for their proficiency and will promptly produce a report with conclusions and recommendations.
As outlined in the PS’s draft law, the CTI aims to conduct “an exhaustive and factual analysis of this year’s rural fire campaign, comparing it with previous years,” specifically the 2018-2024 period.
The PS intends to “identify the causes of the operational failures recorded, assess the effectiveness of the current public policies, and produce a final report with concrete, urgent, and long-term recommendations to strengthen the forest fire defense model.”
