The rapporteur of the Budget Guidelines Law (LDO), Gervásio Maia (PSB-PB), stated that the government agreed with the calendar for payment of amendments until July next year. The text will provide for the mandatory distribution of at least 60% of pix and health amendments before the election period.
The agreement was reached at a meeting of the Mixed Budget Committee this Tuesday. Planalto resisted the idea and avoided committing to payment, but ended up giving in.
In return, the rapporteur will add authorization to the text so that the government can stay within the fiscal target. The change, also made in the LDO of 2025 through a bill from the National Congress, could prevent the Federal Court of Auditors from once again demanding the government comply with the center of the target, providing more guarantee that the execution of the budget can follow, for example, the lower band of the target.
The text of the LDO, in accordance with the fiscal framework, provides that the execution of the budget can comply with the tolerance intervals downwards, with a surplus and zero deficit, or upwards, with a surplus of R$68 billion.

Before voting on the Annual Budget Law (LOA), the CMO also analyzes the revenue report. For the text, the government must maintain the forecast for extra resources with two bills that have not yet been approved: the proposal that cuts tax incentives for companies by up to 10%, which could generate revenue of up to R$19 billion, and the increase in taxes for bets and fintechs, which could generate up to R$4 billion.
If the projects are not approved by the end of this year, the government will have to deal with frustrated revenues and contingencies next year.
