The Ministers of State and Finance Joaquim Miranda Sarmento and of Infrastructure and Housing Miguel Pinto Luz were given at the Government’s headquarters in Lisbon the report with ANA’s conditions to build the new Lisbon airport at the Alcochete shooting range.
"This report shows ANA’s willingness to continue investing in the country", said Pinto Luz, adding that "the Government will now analyse what was presented" over 30 days.
"Today we are having a symbolic ceremony, a very striking one, to signal the start of a new journey to fulfil this greater goal: an airport to serve the Lisbon area, which is essential for Portugal’s economic growth and progress", Pinto Luz claimed.
The Minister of Infrastructure and Housing added that the costs of the new airport will not affect the State Budget, as the investment is paid "using the resources freed up for the concession, up to the end of the concession period".
