BRAZIL POLITICS - Report 09 Dec 2021 by Murillo de Aragão and Cristiano Noronha

With the partial enactment of the Precatórios PEC, R$ 65 billion of fiscal space has been created in the 2022 Budget, which should be used, in part, to finance the Auxílio Brasil program. The points changed by the senators will be analyzed in the House next Tuesday. Other important victories for the government include the approval of the exchange rate framework and Provisional Measure (MP) 1.063/2021, which authorizes gas stations to buy fuel alcohol (hydrated ethanol) directly from producers and importers.
