About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)

Kim Kataguiri: If there were no material change, there would not be this political pressure for this matter to move forward.

Kim Kataguiri: The main argument used here is the following: there is no real change, nothing will change in reality, all bodies that are already subordinated to the Advocacia-Geral da União will remain subordinated.

I very much doubt there would be this political mobilization around this matter if it were going to change nothing.

Kim Kataguiri: What worries me is the possibility of reducing the autonomy of the autarchies, the autonomy of the regulatory agencies, the autonomy of the Central Bank and, at the same time, granting superpowers so that the Attorney General of the Union can take upon himself cases that should not fall within his competence, that should not be within his remit, because of the political influence to which he is subject. So, we recommend "no."

Kim Kataguiri: Mr. President, the Missão Party opposes it, first, because it is a proposal that lacks an impact estimate, which is a requirement for all proposals that are processed in this House; second, because it has no source of funding, and I think this is the most important point, because we would be benefiting one sector without knowing which sector we would be harming.
