The executive management committee (CaneX) was approved on Thursday, 13, which is a zero reduction of tax tariffs of import of 11 foods.
The Lola Administration had already announced last week that it would give a greeting to try to contain food inflation, but the official procedure is needed by the technical body of the Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade and Services (MDIC), which will be detailed for the elements that will be exempt from landing in Brazil.
The volume said: “With the largest offer for the products chosen in Brazil for tax, zero, the decision also seeks to prevent price drainage and contribute to compliance with the purpose of inflation,” the volume said.

Sardin class
The Vice President of MDIC and his minister, Geraldo Alkain, assessed that the establishment of an import share of 7.5 thousand tons of sardines with a zero tax will avoid the reaction of the productive sector in the Congress to the measure.
“We have set the shares. Look at now I mentioned that we will issue the tax, but even these 7500 tons quotas will always be followed, and we will continue weekly,” he answered.
Yesterday, the Parliamentary Front for Agriculture (FPA) stated that the government’s decision to reset the import rate of sardines will threaten the entire fishing chain and thousands of jobs. He said in advance: “The sardines sector in Brazil, one of the latest in the world, represents 75 % of the revenue of the fishing industry.”
Alckin has already argued that the government has studied this issue, and thus decided to create a share of the product that could come with the zero fare. This measure will be applied tomorrow in the “preparations and sardine governorates, complete or cut, except for chopped fish”, which are 32 % today.
The tax cost of measurement
Alkaine said that the federal government may stop collecting $ 650 million if the import tax rate of 11 foods is valid for a year.
“What we expect is that it will be more transitional, so it will be smaller,” he said. However, the minister said that there is no prior deadline for zero prices valid. According to him, it will be the time to stimulate the reduction of prices. “How long does it take to stimulate prices reduction, reduce food price, reduce tax, and help population,” he answered.
S. Estadão/broadcast Last Friday, 7 years, the government expected the financial cost of the settlement be away from one billion dollars. Import tax, although it leads to a government collection, has an organizational nature. The excitement of rates, and therefore, does not require the executive director to compensate for any exemptions.
“Of course, we know that the biggest impact on food prices was the weather and the dollar was. The expectations about the weather are very good,” the minister said. “These are emergency measures to reduce taxes, reduce the cost of food and help at this exceptional time to reduce inflation, especially food enlargement,” Alcumin continued the scale motive.

When asked whether or not the adoption of ICMS Zero for basic basketball products, according to the resumption of the federal government, the minister recalled that the decision had been announced by some governors already during their study.
“Not everything can be reduced; but suddenly you can reduce eggs, and a type of meat. So everyone goes to see what he can do, but it helps. This is something that helps. A lot of the correct measure, which was approved in tax reform unanimously: no tax on the basic basket.”
He added, “The government will not impose it, and will not impose it under the law, but it is a procedure.”
reconnaissance Estadão/broadcast Besides the states, it shows that at least at least 14 are already adopting different rates of these products and only one will implement the procedure after the government’s request.
