Carneiro pressures Montenegro again to back down on rents
The Socialist Party leader is calling on the Prime Minister to withdraw proposed rent law amendments currently under debate in Parliament, which stem from an agreement between the PSD and Chega parties. Instead, the PS is proposing a public guarantee mechanism managed by the IHRU to cover late rent and property damage for landlords, provided the rental contracts are registered with the Tax Authority and meet 'affordable rent' limits.
Why it matters
While this is a political push by the opposition rather than a settled law, it highlights that rental legislation is currently under active debate in Parliament, which could result in future changes to landlord-tenant protections and public guarantees for rentals.ObservadorRead original ↗
