This Thursday (15), the Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) Flávio Dino determined the prohibition of the use of resources from parliamentary amendments intended for third sector entities that have family ties with parliamentarians or their advisors.
According to Dino, entities that have, in their management or administrative staff, a spouse, partner or relative, up to the third degree, of a parliamentarian responsible for nominating the amendment or an advisor linked to them are prevented from receiving public resources.
The prohibition also extends to cases in which entities, even though they are formally independent, hire or subcontract individuals or legal entities linked to these parliamentarians, or advisors, even indirectly. For the minister, these situations characterize an attempt to circumvent legislation and maintain favoritism with public resources.
In addition to the topic of nepotism, Dino ordered the ministries of Regional Development, Management and Innovation in Public Services and the Comptroller General of the Union (CGU) to prepare, within 60 days, a technical note on the execution of parliamentary amendments by DNOCS and Codevasf. According to the minister, there are recurring problems in the execution of these resources, often associated with police investigations.
