The PSD-Madeira parliamentary group highlighted the Regional Government's measures to mitigate the effects of the international economic situation on families.
MP Brício Araújo acknowledged the real difficulties faced by Madeirans but stressed that price pressures stem from external factors like the war in Ukraine and energy instability.
The PSD believes that lowering income tax, resulting in the lowest rates in Portugal, is the most effective fiscal policy to increase families' disposable income, contrasting it with a potential VAT reduction on consumption.
