O It is taking significant measures to combat fraud that have harmed retired and pensioners across the country. In an innovative initiative, the INSS is using the post office structure to support victims of undue discounts on their benefits. This decision was motivated by allegations of frauds associated with class entities, and aims to provide a support point so that policyholders can be oriented on how to request compensation. The employees of who already perform functions such as proof of life and issuance of statements for the INSS, will be responsible for this new service, which is expected to start in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, in the political scenario, an opposition wing in Congress is intensifying efforts to create a Mixed Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry (CPMI) to investigate the fraud in the INSS. Deputy Colonel Fernanda, one of the main defenders of the creation of the commission, revealed that Senator David Alcolumbre pledged to read the request at the next joint session of Congress. This reading is a crucial step for the installation of the collegiate. Senator Carlos Portinho, PL leader, emphasized the importance of CPMI, stating that Brazil is crying out for an in -depth investigation on the subject.
The minister of the General Secretariat of the Presidency, Márcio Macedo, also commented on suspicions of fraud, classifying those responsible as criminals and ensuring that the culprits are already being punished. He said he did not fear the installation of a CPMI, but expressed concerns about the electoral use of the agenda. According to Macedo, the investigation is already being conducted by competent bodies, such as the Federal Police and the Comptroller General of the Union. He pointed out that the intention of some parliamentarians is to turn the CPI into a political stage, which could compromise investigations ongoing.
