This Thursday (23), minister Flávio Dino determined that state and municipal legislatures adopt the same transparency and traceability rules that are already applied to federal parliamentary amendments.
According to Dino, the previous model created a form of “selective transparency”, allowing inappropriate practices in the management of public money. Furthermore, he highlighted that it does not make sense for only the federal government to be required to identify the origin and final beneficiaries of public resources.
“It makes no sense that the duty to identify the origin and final beneficiaries of public resources, transparency and end-to-end traceability, is limited to the federal level, allowing the same defects, opacity, fragmentation, lack of planning and social control to persist at the state, district and municipal levels.”, stated Dino.
The minister’s decision determines that legislative assemblies and municipal chambers adopt the same control standards applied to federal amendments, as a way of ensuring greater integrity and supervision in the use of public money. With the new decision, the execution of parliamentary amendments already approved by state deputies and councilors for the year 2026 will be suspended.
These resources can only be released when the legislative assemblies and municipal chambers prove that they have complied with the new transparency standards determined by the Federal Supreme Court.
