Motta announces creation of working group to discuss administrative reform

The President of the Chamber of Deputies, Hugo Motta , announced this Tuesday 21st the creation of a working group to discuss administrative reform . The group will have 45 days to present a proposal and will have one representative from each party.

According to Motta, the expectation is to vote on the text in the plenary session in the first half of the year, before the parliamentary recess in July. “When discussing this matter, we should think about those who are at the forefront and most in need and those who depend on public services to access actions that sometimes take a long time or are inaccessible,” he said.

According to the president of the House, the working group will seek to work “to reduce the public sector” so that there will be more resources to invest in strategic issues for the country. He also advocated discussion on the use of new technologies to improve the provision of services to the population.

On Wednesday, the Chamber approved the restructuring of careers and a salary adjustment for employees of the Executive Branch. Among other points, the proposal provides for the creation of careers in Socioeconomic Development, Development of Justice and Defense Policies, and Oversight of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

It also readjusts the remuneration of commissioned positions, positions of trust and bonuses of the Federal Executive Branch.
