LISBON (Reuters) – Portugal’s parliament on
Wednesday overturned the presidential veto on a bill legalising
adoption by same-sex couples, which means conservative President Anibal
Cavaco Silva will have to sign it into law before his term ends in
March.
The motion was passed by 137 votes in the 230-seat
parliament, bringing together the ruling Socialists, their far-left
allies – the Communists and Left Bloc, and some opposition deputies from
the Social Democratic Party. The rightist CDS voted against.
