Interesting find @InvestVG-PT. It is digitally signed on 25th March by ‘Rui Armindo Freitas’ (i.e. Deputy Secretary of State for the Presidency, and head of the ‘Migration Action Plan’), so does that make it ‘official?’
Target of a 30% reduction in pending ARI applications in 2025? So when the GV hucksters tell us AIMA has a ‘Mission Structure’ plan to clear the ARI backlog this year, well not even AIMA believes that… not even half of that!
Couple other targets in this document of interest to NG’ers…
30% reduction in the average time taken to issue Residence Permit Renewals
60% completion rate of court cases
- Deepl translates the goal as “Improve the procedures inherent in the processing of legal cases, with a significant rate of conclusion due to supervening uselessness of the case”
- …which ChatGPT tells me means “the case is no longer meaningful, necessary, or capable of providing any effective legal relief. Essentially, it means the case has become moot due to a change in circumstances.” - so, like, throw a Biometrics appointment at you but perhaps nothing further (their strategy used last year)?
