PCP Proposes Merging PSP, GNR Police Forces

The Portuguese Communist Party (PCP) has reintroduced a proposal to consolidate the Portuguese Security Forces (PSP) and the National Guard (GNR) into a single police force. This initiative, previously raised in 2022 and 2025, aims to eliminate redundancies within the existing law enforcement structure. The proposal has drawn criticism from the Socialist Party (PS) and the Social Democratic Party (PSD), who disagree with the plan.
