Motion from PS: monitorização do acesso de cidadãos estrangeiros ao Serviço Nacional de Saúde.
Motion from PS, tabled on 25 September, XVII Legislature. Official title: "Recomenda ao Governo a monitorização do acesso de cidadãos estrangeiros ao Serviço Nacional de Saúde".
This brief gathered 7 candidates from BASE/IMPIC, Assembleia da República and published the 3 highest-scoring. A fact that ran in an earlier brief only returns when its value changes; a standing fact repeats at most once a fortnight. The score weighs the type of change (threshold crossed > record > acceleration > movement > deviation > standing state), magnitude and freshness; a fact older than its source's publication cadence is ineligible, which is why a 2020 figure can never appear in a 2026 brief.
