About: defend States' autonomy in public security policies
I'd like to begin with public security, one of the hallmarks of your government in Goiás.
Desconhecido
How will you take that experience to the country without challenging, without contravening the autonomy of the governors?
- Neutral

About: defend States' autonomy in public security policies
An autonomy, indeed, that you did not relinquish in the discussion of the public security PEC with the federal government.
About: defend States' autonomy in public security policies
And that is untouchable—the autonomy of the states.
About: defend States' autonomy in public security policies
After all, it was that provision that we amended so that the prerogative of the 1988 Constituent Assembly would prevail.
Is that correct?
- Neutral
About: defend States' autonomy in public security policies
That is to say, the states have the general guidelines.
This is constitutional.
They wanted to change it.
About: ensure the Union assumes responsibility for federal crimes and transfers resources to the states
What we did is that the President of the Republic will act on matters that are federal crimes.
and that today the governors are overburdened.
Arms trafficking, arms smuggling, money laundering, drugs — these are federal crimes.
And, in fact, what happens?
- Neutral
About: increase federal transfers to public security and penitentiary funds
The federal government does not allocate funds to the prisons or to federal public security.
About: create a Ministry of Public Security
So, our policy will be, Eduardo, to create the Ministry of Public Security.
About: integrar COAF, Receita Federal, CVM e inteligência da Polícia Federal ao Ministério da Segurança Pública
This Ministry of Public Security is attached...
to COAF, which monitors all financial movement, the Federal Revenue Service, the CVM, and the intelligence of the Federal Police.
About: criar um sistema de monitoramento financeiro ('sentinela') para alertar autoridades estaduais sobre movimentações suspeitas
All of this goes into a system called Sentinela, and any change that a company or a citizen shows triggers an alert.
Desconhecido
To trace money from the...
So that that source immediately... already informs the State Police or the Secretary of Public Security.
So, you conduct a sweep, which is what we don't have today.
- Neutral
About: criar um sistema de monitoramento financeiro ('sentinela') para alertar autoridades estaduais sobre movimentações suspeitas
We, governors, are not alerted.
We do not have COAF.
- Neutral
About: criar um sistema de monitoramento financeiro ('sentinela') para alertar autoridades estaduais sobre movimentações suspeitas
We do not have a way to identify fraudulent companies operating in the states.
About: build 40 maximum-security prisons
And alongside that, of course — as I have already said — there are 40 prisons, sorry, maximum-security penitentiaries.
About: prohibit intimate visits and restrict confidential hearings in penitentiaries
distributed across the states and the Federal District, where we will place all those people who are faction leaders in complete isolation, without conjugal visits and certainly without confidential hearings with their lawyers.

About: build 40 maximum-security prisons
Just to be clear, are you building 40 new prisons, sir?
