Important note

Data regarding the decentralization of competences of municipalities is being updated. We are working to ensure that information is available as soon as possible.

Decentralization of powers

Proximity to populations is essential for solving people's real problems on a daily basis. Knowing the needs and having the ability to intervene in their resolution in an agile and uncomplicated way is one of the most important missions of the Municipalities.

For this, it is necessary that each Municipality has at its disposal not only the necessary resources but also the institutional attribution of the respective responsibilities. In light of the current model of decentralization of powers from the Central Administration to the Municipalities, each of the Municipalities entrusted with providing services to citizens in a very wide range of fields.

Areas of decentralization of powers

  • Area not accepted Education
  • Accepted area Citizen Assistance
  • Accepted area Heritage
  • Accepted area Justice
  • Accepted area Communication routes
  • Area not accepted Inland waterway transport
  • Accepted area Protected areas co-management
  • Accepted area Civil protection
  • Area not accepted Social work
  • Accepted area Community policing
  • Accepted area Fire safety
  • Accepted area Public car parking
  • Accepted area Gambling
  • Accepted area Afforestation and re-afforestation
  • Accepted area Fire brigade associations
  • Health
  • Housing
  • Culture
  • Port areas
  • Beaches
Important note

Once the powers relating to Health, Culture and Communications have been accepted, an agreement needs to be signed setting out the terms of the transfer of powers.
In Social work, the deadline given for the municipalities to pronounce themselves on the figures is still past, which is why this area has not been considered when calculating the acceptance of powers.

What does the decentralization of powers to the municipalities imply?

Citizen Assistance

The municipality is entrusted with setting up and managing Lojas do Cidadão, Espaços Cidadão (the official designations given to citizen service centres), managing emigrant support offices and local migrant integration support centres, albeit in strict coordination with the state services and bodies in charge of these departments.
