The time for maneuver is lengthening as the government is in a race against time to enact the budget law and thus avoid the provisional exercise. A new conference of House group leaders will be convened tonight to set the new times for the device’s arrival in the House. That’s what we learned on the sidelines of the Budget committee’s work that voting on the amendments should begin tonight. The leader of the group, it is explained, will be held at the end of the presidency of the V commission.
The decision will have repercussions on schedules, as with the leader of the group summoned at night it is unlikely that tomorrow, Wednesday, December 21, the text will reach the Chamber. December, 24.
However, the government is determined to enact the budget law at all costs by the end of the year. “In case Parliament decides not to change the maneuver, the text already approved by the Council of Ministers is perfectly fine for the Ministry of Economy and Finance. With that, we will go to the Chamber and trust it, with the exception of the reformulation of the Pos”, said sources at the Mef. A sign of the executive’s intention to break the stalemate. “There is a commitment from the majority to vote for batucada in all amendments – from the government, from the majority, from the rapporteurs and from the opposition – without leaving anyone out”, underlined the FI rapporteur on the maneuver, Roberto Pella. The atmosphere remains tense, with the opposition attacking: “They are taking us to the provisional exercise”.
