This amendment aims to adapt the voting conditions to the new context of coupled or general elections.

This law, implemented in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 10/84 of July 30, 1984, on the definition and general organization of Preschool Education, aims to transfer preschool establishments to the Ministry responsible for National Education.
