Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Administrative Court unanimously dismissed the appeal filed by Auto-Viação do Souto LDA against the Ministry of Commerce's decision not to grant a regular passenger transport career. The appellant argued for the concession, while the Ministry exercised its discretionary power under the relevant 1948 law to deny it. The court upheld the Ministry's decision, ruling that the granting of such careers falls within the realm of administrative discretion and is not subject to judicial review.
