The Minister of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Flávio Dinodetermined, on Tuesday (18), that the Comptroller General of the Union (CGU) and the Attorney General of the Union (AGU) hold a new audit of R $ 469 million in parliamentary amendments for 2024.
The focus will be the analysis of work plans that are classified as “not registered” on the federal government’s transfers platform, which monitors the payment and transfer of funds from the Union.
The forecast is that the audit should be completed within 60 days. In addition, Dino charged a revision of the amendments already approved and transferred to verify that the resources are being executed correctly.
The minister also summoned Banco do Brasil and Caixa Econômica Federal to include the CPFs and CNPJs of the final beneficiaries, increasing transparency about the destination of money.
Lack of budget traceability
Dino cited a technical note from the Federal Court of Audit (TCU) that points out failures in transparency of transfers. The document revealed that in the last six years, at least 86% of the amendments have been paid via transfers to states and municipalities. Another 14% were passed directly by the federal government.
Of the total, only 19% of transfers allow you to track money from the author of the amendment to the final beneficiary.
Continues after advertising
The biggest problem, according to the document, is in the “fund bottom” modality, which represents 69% of transfers. This method uses generic accounts, making it difficult to trace money via bank statements.
Effort for more transparency
Dino recognized recent advances in the supervision of amendments, such as the creation of a system of status for the work plans, determined by the federal government. However, it stressed that new measures are necessary to ensure greater transparency and avoid fraud.
