O president of the Government of Madeira and leader of the regional PSD, Miguel Albuquerque, said today that the construction of public housing will remain a priority of its executive, seeing that this bet does not mean “any blockage to the economy”.
Albuquerque, who spoke at the meeting of the Regional Council of the PSD/Madeira, held for the first time on the island of Porto Santo, argued that the construction of public housing does not conflict with the tourism and local housing sectors, considering that these are “fundamental areas” of the regional economy and contribute to the creation of employment.
The Madeiran Social Democratic leader stressed that the Regional Government (PSD/CDS-PP) built around 820 fires under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR), which will be delivered in full by the end of the year, and will continue to invest in the sector.
“The PSD/Madeira has been in power for 50 years because it has an enormous capacity for political combat, resilience and affirmation in those that are its main guidelines and it is in this logic that we must continue to work with firmness and conviction,” he said, quoted in a statement, issued after the meeting of the Regional Council of the Party.
On the other hand, the president of the Bureau of the Regional Council of the PSD, João Cunha e Silva, stressed the fulfillment of the regional executive program in Porto Santo, an investment of more than 160 million euros, especially the work of the local Health Unit, the extension of the golf course and support for housing.
