The Minister of Finance said that there will be “zero tolerance” towards illegal betting and an increase in advertising restrictions on platforms that operate legally.
"The commitment is permanent hardening, permanent rigor in the treatment of bets. We have the information, we know the amount of bets there are in the country, we know, with the crossing of data from Desenrola, what the level of people's debt is," he commented.
Financial impact Durigan reported that he spoke this Tuesday (14) with the president of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre, after the House approved the proposed amendment to the Constitution (PEC) that creates specific rules for differentiated retirement for community health workers. According to the Treasury, the estimated financial impact on public accounts is approximately R$27 billion over ten years.
“I asked him to promulgate the PEC as soon as he had all the data, so that he would not promulgate it in the dark, without knowing what impact the PEC will have”, he added.
The minister also added that “it is possible and likely” that the government will appeal to the Supreme Court.
Annulment In June, Minister Gilmar Mendes, dean of the STF, warned that the approval of spending by Congress could be considered unconstitutional by the Court. According to the minister's understanding, the absence of prior financial impact studies could lead to the annulment of legislative measures.
Mendes' speech occurred after Congress approved another project that could have a major impact on the federal government's accounts.
The senators authorized the renegotiation of debts of rural producers affected by climatic and geopolitical events, such as the war in Iran. The impact of the approval could reach R$140 billion.
