Favorite to command OA from Saturday (1st), the senator (-AP) will have, if confirmed his election, dozens of positions linked to the presidency to expand his political capital with his colleagues. Part of these vacancies is provided to the nearest allies offices, in a cuddle made with public money.
The current president, (-MG), used a quarter of the positions available to the presidency for this political bargain. The expense was R $ 400 thousand per month with salaries and food aid, according to a survey by Sheet. In one year, the expense reaches more than $ 5 million, without considering daily and other paid aids.
Currently, there are 78 positions linked to the presidency, in roles such as ceremonial, legal, administrative and press advice, the Senate said through the Law on Access to Information. Of these, 19 are assigned to offices of 12 allied senators from parties such as PT, PDT, União Brasil, PP, PSD and MDB. Pacheco moved four other vacancies to his personal office.
Cededed positions are all commissioned, free choice for the parliamentarian, and respond directly to the cabinet in which they are crowded. Salaries range from R $ 2,815.44 to R $ 29.5 thousand, according to the Transparency Portal – the total number of employees can be even higher from a redistribution of values.
Wanted, Pacheco declined to comment.
The same device is adopted in the presidency of. The report asked the house, also via LAI, the information about the amount of positions and the current distribution, but there was no return.
Against Alcolumbre, Eduardo Girão (Novo-CE) says that, unfortunately, the distribution of positions “is part of the political game”. In the senator’s evaluation, the benefit guaranteed to the president strengthens shells in the house.
“The president of the Senate has a lot of power with these positions to buy support. These shells are all made also based on this, not just amendments. It’s too much position and it’s all with money [público]. It’s the so -called gross game, “he says.
With a “borrowed” advisor to the presidency in his office, Vanderlan Cardoso (PSD-GO) says that the funds available to senators for hiring is not high when looking for good professionals.
“If you ask me, I don’t know who it is. But I’ll see that. [de gabinete] It seems a lot of money, but it is not, when you need qualified people. But this goes from each senator’s profile, “he says.
“I have a person in my office [concursada] with almost 30 years of Central Bank. But this does not influence anything in the negotiation for president. Not even if he had a thousand positions, this bargain does not exist, “he adds.
Each senator is entitled to up to 50 commissioned positions. In addition to having a team of its own, the parliamentarian is available for various works – as an elaboration of opinions, bills and discourses – the servers of the Federal Senate itself.
Two senators who also won Pacheco positions say, under reserve, that the theme was not treated with alcohumbre in discussions about the election. One of them played wanting the 78 who are busy and said hope not to lose both aide with the exchange of president.
The other parliamentarian said he was preparing to lose his office that was provided by Pacheco, but said he naturally sees the largest number of employees in the possession of the Senate President and the committee presidents, as well as possible loans to offices.
