The Chega party submitted a resolution proposal in the Assembleia da República, requesting the Government to conduct an audit of RTP's financial management. This audit should include an analysis of the remuneration and human resources of the public entity, covering the period from 2013 to 2024.

Chega's proposal aims to complement an audit already being conducted by the Inspeção Geral de Finanças (IGF). The party believes that the IGF's audit should be expanded to include aspects related to RTP's internal control mechanisms.

The proposal does not have the force of law, but serves to draw attention to RTP's management, an important public service in Portugal. Chega argues that transparency in the use of resources is essential for good public administration.

Chega's initiative arises in a context of increasing scrutiny over the management of public entities in Portugal. The party has advocated for a more rigorous review of the use of public funds.

Proposals for audits of the public sector have been a recurring theme in recent political discussions, reflecting concerns about the efficiency and accountability in the financial management of institutions.
