For Bira do Pindaré (PSB-MA), author of the request, the privatization of 39 of the company's warehouses will result in serious implications for the security of the country's food supply. “The current president, through a provisional measure, has established the dismantling of the country’s food and nutritional security. After ending the National Council for Food and Nutritional Security, and also vetoing its re-creation after the measure was changed and approved in Congress, now what is being processed is the privatization of Conab”, he states.
Time and place
The hearing will be on Tuesday (10), at 10 am, in plenary 6.
