Portuguese Prime Minister, Pedro Passos Coelho, following a meeting with unions and business associations, has announced that the controversial and definitely removed protested massively lowering wages across the board to all employees based on the quote subirles social security. Also return of the two extra payments to retired civil servants and pensioners a year ago in a decision that was declared illegal by the Portuguese Constitutional Court.
In return, and in order to find the more than 2,000 million per year that the Portuguese would receive extra pay and those deemed by the Government are vital for the deficit does not derail, Passos Coelho has announced that there will be a rise in taxes to offset the loss in revenue. He said it also is considering raising the valuation and equity capital and has no plans to further raise taxes. He added that as far down the base salary up to Social Security, which generated street protests ever seen in Portugal since the Revolution of April 1974, "was not understood" by the population and that the reforms undertaken by the Government "slow to take effect."

So, Passos Coelho (politically weakened by criticism in the press and plummeting popularity) back, apparently, in the latest twist to the Portuguese inflicted austerity, to abandon the general fall in wages.
Passos Coelho has said that there was no consensus at the meeting. The representatives of employers had already warned that cut wages amounted to a fall in consumption and disagreed; unions, even less.
In Brussels await with interest the details of these alternatives. A European Commission spokesman claimed today that Europe awaits the Portuguese government to find measures "in number and" do not alter the agreements of the troika. Passos Coelho said he will send them asap.
