With the new rule, retirees and pensioners who wish to contribute to entities must make the payment by other means, such as bank slips
It approved, in symbolic vote, the bill that prohibits automatic discounts of associations and unions in retirees and pensioners. The measure seeks to end a practice that, in many cases, occurred without authorization or knowledge of the beneficiaries, resulting in fraud investigated by the operation without discount.
With the new rule, retirees and pensioners who wish to contribute to entities must make the payment by other means, such as bank slips. The only automatic discount that will continue to be allowed is payroll loans, provided that it is authorized by the beneficiary and within transparency rules.
The bill now follows for analysis of the Federal Senate. The theme gained strength after allegations of fraud involving the INSS, which motivated investigations by the Federal Police and the creation of a Mixed Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPMI). CPMI has already confirmed for next week the testimonies of former Pension Minister Carlos Lupi, scheduled for Monday (8), and former INSS President and former Labor Minister, José Carlos Oliveira, scheduled for Thursday (11). Both must provide clarification on the deviation scheme at the Institute.
