The European Commission adopted on 5 February 2016 an Opinion on Portugal's 2016 Draft Budgetary Plan (DBP). It considered the draft plan to be at risk on non-compliance with the provision of the Stability and Growth Pact. The Commission invited the Portuguese authorities to take the necessary measures within the national budgetary process to ensure that the 2016 budget would be compliant with the Pact. Commentators noted that while the Commission eventually adopted the DBP, it only agreed to this after several concessions to further savings by the Portuguese government. |
