Fabian Figueiredo, a deputy from the Left Bloc (BE), announced the suspension of his parliamentary mandate for the month of September. The decision was communicated by Figueiredo, who justified his absence citing 'personal reasons.'

During this period, deputy Andreia Galvão will take his place. Galvão has previously served as a substitute, having filled in when deputy Mariana Mortágua was unavailable.

The suspension of the mandate has been confirmed by several sources, including Observador and SAPO 24, which highlighted the significance of the replacement during this month.

Figueiredo's decision reflects a personal choice, but no additional details were provided regarding the nature of the reasons behind his suspension. Expectations are that Figueiredo will return to his position in October.
