Commendation no. 270/2017

Having terminated my service as Secretary of State for Taxation, I hereby publicly commend the graduate Rui Dinis Nascimento for the exemplary way in which he has carried out his duties as a Deputy in my Office.

Rui Nascimento combines considerable confidence and depth of knowledge in the area of tax affairs, particularly corporate tax and international taxation, with extensive practical experience, capacity for critical thinking, hard work and dedication to the public interest, qualities which made him an extremely valuable member of my team.

I would particularly like to highlight his work on corporate tax matters and tax incentives; his work on overseeing the transposition of European Community directives to combat money laundering and terrorist financing; his work on international multilateral instruments for exchanging information and fighting fraud, particularly in relation to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS); and on the issue of preferential tax regimes.

I am therefore very pleased to recognise the performance of Rui Dinis Nascimento as highly praiseworthy and to make it public in this commendation.

Commendation no. 292/2018

Having terminated his duties as Deputy in my Office, at his own request, I feel it incumbent on me to hereby publicly commend the graduate Rui Dinis Nascimento for the high level of competence, sense of responsibility, diligence, loyalty and institutional devotion which he demonstrated in carrying out the duties allocated to him.

The intelligence and technical preparation shown in handling the different tasks which were allotted to him, together with his extraordinary human qualities, amongst which I would highlight his team spirit and irreproachable personal and professional integrity, were all decisive elements in the work he undertook in my Office. They are all significant aspects I would like to stress in prompting this recognition, which stems from a firm conviction that the exercise of public duties can only be strengthened by the high level of performance shown by professionals such as Rui Dinis Nascimento.

Therefore, it is with every justification that I express to him and acknowledge in this commendation my sincere appreciation and gratitude.

3 July 2018 – The Secretary of State for Tax Affairs,
António Manuel Veiga dos Santos Mendonça Mendes
