The transition team appointed by president-elect Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva begins to occupy, on Monday (7), the premises of the Cultural Center of Banco do Brasil (CCBB). The PT president, federal deputy Gleisi Hoffmann (PR), visited the place this Friday morning (4) and said that Lula should come to Brasília next week, on a day not yet defined.
“The forecast is that, as of Monday, we will start to occupy the space, not with the entire team formed, but with the administration team, which will do this part of support, so that, when the transition teams, from the theme areas arrive, everything is ready,” said Gleisi.
He also spoke about the proposed amendment to the Constitution (PEC) that should be built by the elected government to accommodate, in next year’s budget, the projects of the Lula government. The measure would allow spending above the ceiling.
“We have to see all the possibilities to make what was contracted at the polls viable. we can’t enter [em] 2023 without emergency aid [Auxílio Brasil de R$ 600]without the actual increase [acima da inflação] of the minimum wage. These are things that were contracted with the Brazilian people and I’m sure [de] that Congress has this sensitivity, the Court of Auditors [da União] too,” he said.
According to Gleisi, the technical area of the elected government is negotiating with the parliamentarians of the Joint Budget Committee and, on Monday (7), the definitions should begin to come out.
