Measure aims to increase transparency in the destination of funds; Minister Flávio Dino, however, imposed some restrictions, especially in relation to NGOs
The Supreme Federal Court (STF) unanimously ratified the decision of Minister Flávio Dino, who validated the work plan prepared by the Federal Government and the National Congress. This measure aims to increase transparency in parliamentary amendments and was approved with a score of 11 votes in favor and none against. With the approval, Flávio Dino authorized the execution of the budget amendments of 2025, in addition to those related to previous years.
The minister, however, imposed some restrictions, especially in relation to NGOs (non -governmental organizations) and third sector entities, emphasizing the importance of continuous dialogue with Congress. In addition, inquiries on inadequate use of resources will remain in progress.
Amendments known as Pix Amendments, which are direct transfers to states and municipalities, will have a new requirement: the presentation of work plans. It was also established that the growth of amendments to the budget may not exceed the limit of the tax framework or the variation of net current revenue.
Dino also pointed out that the approval of the plan is not a final act. The National Congress will have until May 30 to provide new information on necessary technical and legislative adjustments. He stressed that this initiative represents an advance in terms of institutional improvement, but that the debate on the subject is far from ending.
