We are in the richest state in Brazil.
- Neutral
About: universalize access to sanitation
And in this richest state in Brazil, we had a series of ills regarding sanitation.
- For
About: privatize state-owned companies
Imagine that, in one year after the company was privatized, we managed to deliver treated sewage, to provide sewage collection and treatment for one million people who didn't have it, one million families who didn't have treated sewage.
- For
About: universalize access to sanitation
So, we are reaching at least 3 million people who didn't have access to sewage collection and treatment.
- For
About: expand access to drinking water through household connections
Potable water reached more than 530,000 residences, one and a half million people who didn't have access to treated water now have potable water.
- For
About: universalize access to sanitation
Imagine that Guarulhos, which not long ago had 2% sewage collection and treatment, 2%, according to the second-largest city in the state of São Paulo, will close this year with 45%, next year will have 78% and in 2029 will be universalized.
- Neutral
About: universalize access to sanitation
If I take the metropolitan region — Caieiras, Franco da Rocha, Francisco Morato — we had zero sewage collection and treatment in 2022.
- For
About: universalize access to sanitation
We finish this year with 60% to be universalized by 2029.
- Neutral
About: reduce pollution and organic load in urban rivers
The pollution plume on the Tietê shrank by 34 kilometers in one year.
- Neutral
About: implement a social tariff at Sabesp
Today, São Paulo has three tiers of social tariff.
- Neutral
About: implement a social tariff at Sabesp
One that gives a 78% discount, one 72% and one 50%.
And how is that possible?
- For
About: strengthen regulatory agencies
Well, even having a service, which is basic sanitation, where regulation is based on the asset base, by investing, investing, investing — that is, as the asset base grows — we are managing to hold the tariff down without destroying the value of the private partner, by contributing the State's dividend to the company, that is, returning or guaranteeing a citizen's share in the company's results in the form of lower tariffs.
- For
About: universalize access to sanitation
So, that's what we're doing.
There's an interesting financial aspect.
- For
About: privatize state-owned companies
We sold and left control of the company; we sold 32% of the shares for 14.7 billion reais.
- For
About: privatize state-owned companies
One year later, the 18% we still have are already worth more than 17 billion reais, because the share price went from 67 to 140 — this happened in just one year.
- For
About: privatize state-owned companies
So, look at the return we're having.
- For
About: attract private investment for sanitation
The company that used to invest 3 to 4 billion reais per year is investing 16 billion reais.
- For
About: contract sanitation infrastructure projects
We have about 40 billion reais of contracted works.
- For
About: privatize state-owned companies
So, I think we have some evidence to show: privatization works.
- For
About: reduce the State's business activity and focus on providing essential public services
There are things the private sector does much better than the State, and it really does; the State has to be the regulator.
- For
About: strengthen regulatory agencies
And we also strengthened the regulatory agencies, so as not to let what happens in some agencies happen.
- For
About: guarantee budgetary autonomy and technical criteria for regulatory agencies
So, in this strengthening of the regulatory framework, today we have more... criteria for choosing leadership, we have agencies that have budgetary and financial autonomy, we equipped these regulatory agencies so that we can carry out good regulation.
- For
About: attract private investment through public-private partnerships
And good regulation brings confidence to the investor, and that's why an investment partnership program we launched two years ago — and at that time we had the ambition to contract 220 billion reais of private investment — has already reached... Now, in November of this year, almost 380 billion reais of private investment contracted.
- For
About: maintain moderate tariffs for sanitation services
It's funny, we managed to guarantee citizens participation in the company's results, while delivering a lower tariff.
- For
About: adopt privatization and fiscal responsibility policies
This was done by the right, not the left.
- For
About: prioritize fiscal responsibility in public administration
That's why I say, those who take care of the finances, those who know how to take care of the finances, take care of the people.
