Former minister and one of the coordinators of the communication area of the transitional government Paulo Bernardo said that the technical group should have as one of its priorities recommending that the privatization of the Post Office not be carried out.
The model for transferring the company to the private sector was designed during the administration of Jair Bolsonaro and was even sent to the National Congress.
“We cannot decide anything about it, we are a transition team. Let’s do a survey and we’ll recommend. Our idea is to recommend removing it, ending this idea of privatizing the Post Office. I could even say that, more or less, he foresees what the president thinks about it”, he told journalists this Friday, the 18th.
According to the former minister, a meeting with representatives of the Post Office is scheduled for next Tuesday, 22.
Bernardo also mentioned that the group sees a “problem” involving Empresa Brasil de Comunicação (EBC). The understanding, according to him, is that it is necessary to revoke a government measure that unified the EBC programming.
“The EBC had a branch that is public TV and there was a branch that was government communication, called NBR, and it was all together, they stopped having this separation”, he explained. “I think it has to separate”, he said, citing that he believes that in this case it would be enough to revoke the government measure that grouped the company’s arms.
At the same time, the technical group has also been meeting with representatives of other bodies in the communication sector and discussing other points.
“We are doing an X-ray of everything. For example, we received a report delivered by the president of the TCU Tribunal de Contas da União and we received a recommendation to look very carefully at what refers to our area. We have already started to look to see what kind of measure they are recommending and see how we are going to recommend it to the government. Anyway, we have an obligation to study all these situations and propose solutions.”
