«'Parish: Closer and more solidary. More decentralization!' is the motto chosen to convey the idea of community development and territorial cohesion, in a joint concern for reform that is decentralized and, therefore, closer to the citizens», says ANAFRE.
“Decentralization plays an important role as a driver for the development of the interior, both in terms of municipalities and parishes, because skills are now closer to people, through municipalities and parishes,” he says.
Fernando Negrão, Vice President of the Assembly of the Republic, Jorge Botelho, Secretary of State for Decentralization and Local Administration, Diamantino Santos, Álvaro Bila, Pedro Cegonha and Isilda Gomes will be present at the closing ceremony.
