About: avoid politicization of CPIs and maintain an investigative focus

Sérgio Moro: I am preparing, Senator Plínio Valério, a proposed constitutional amendment to correct — or rather, to make explicit in the constitutional text — this interpretation, because even in the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal) we see that there are ministers who understand that one is obliged to appear, even if one may not answer, and others who understand that appearance itself is optional.

Sérgio Moro: And here I will make it clear: unlike the previous situation, in which I understand there was a procedural maneuver, here there is a legitimate understanding, but we have the need to correct it to place the powers of Parliamentary Inquiry Commissions back in their proper course, which have rendered great service to our country, with all their limitations.

Let us remember the CPI of PC Farias, let us remember the CPI — perhaps the most famous — of the Mensalão, but there is also the old CPI on Organized Crime, the CPI on Pedophilia, several Parliamentary Inquiry Commissions that did important work for the country, even within the sometimes political difficulties that surround the deliberations of these CPIs.

Sérgio Moro: Now we have the CPMI of the INSS, which has provided an important service to the country by bringing to light this shameful theft from retirees and pensioners.

Sérgio Moro: Moreover, now, with suspicion even of the involvement of the President's son, the CPI had the courage to decree the lifting of the fiscal and banking secrecy of the President's son.
