Overview
- The ruling authorizes Dr. Flávio (PL-RJ) and Missionário José Olímpio (PL-SP) to indicate beneficiaries and remap funds tied to the seats formerly held by Alexandre Ramagem and Eduardo Bolsonaro.
- Dino affirmed that proposing amendments requires active exercise of the mandate, noting the ex-deputies were not in that condition during the 2026 budget window.
- He cited the 2026 LDO to permit substitution of the amendment author after a change in the holder of the mandate, unblocking the resources.
- The minister criticized the Chamber of Deputies for delaying cassation, stating the current deputies should have authored the indications, and directed the Chamber to manage proper procedures.
- A separate request for Carla Zambelli’s substitute was rejected because no amendments were filed within the legal period, with Dino saying reopening the window would breach budget-planning principles.
