Marcos Rogério: Therefore, it is a non-existent autonomy, because it has autonomy to decide, but, when it lacks a budget, it cannot fulfill its institutional mission.
Marcos Rogério: Today, we had, in the Commission on Infrastructure, the presence of the director-presidents of the agencies.
Senator Laércio Oliveira, Your Excellency participated in the public hearing as the author of the complementary bill and heard accounts there that demonstrated the impracticability of the agencies' operation due to the budgetary constraints; inspections and services compromised for lack of budget.
Marcos Rogério: This precisely represents a break with what the General Law of the Agencies intended and proposed: autonomous agencies, in terms of their decisions and their functioning.
Marcos Rogério: But, when the budget is lacking, that autonomy ceases to exist in practice.
