Законодавци би могли да донесу одлуку о Лулином вету у априлу
By Џејмс - 1. април 2024
The President of the Senate, Rodrigo Pacheco, stated that Congress could be able to convene in a joint session to decide on the 28 presidential vetoes pending analysis in April. The list includes President Lula’s vetoes to Law 14,790.
The law was sanctioned and published in the Official Gazette of the Union on December 30, 2023, with vetoes on certain parts of the text. The sections vetoed by the president will need to be re-evaluated by lawmakers, who may choose to restore the deleted parts of the text. Rodrigo Pacheco could opt for a joint session between federal deputies and senators to expedite the vote.
Председник Луиз Инасио Лула да Силва је 30. децембра одобрио онлајн спортско клађење и казино игре. објављена је мера in an extra edition of the Official Gazette of the Union. The original bill provided that prizes up to BRL 2,112 (the limit of the lowest Personal Income Tax bracket) would be exempt from taxation but this was vetoed by the President. The change was made so that the Federal Government would not promote “Income Tax taxation different from that applied in other lottery modalities, thus establishing a tax distinction without plausible justification.”
However this was particularly controversial with Национална асоцијација игара и лутрија (ANJL) warning that charging Income Tax at source on net prizes paid to winners of sports betting and online games has the potential to attract bettors to illegal websites. Talking to Brazilian newspaper Correio, the ANJL argued that if the vetoes on the sections that provide for annual tax collection are kept in place then the government could lose out on significant tax revenue. The ANJL advocates that the 15% Income Tax rate on winners’ prizes be collected through the declaration made annually by the taxpayer.
Осим што је ставио вето на ослобађање од пореза на добитке играча који се кладе, председник Лула је такође ставио вето на предложене стандарде за одобрење комерцијалне промоције и подношење жалби, истрага и одговорност у вези са расподелом награда и извлачења до 10,000 Р$.
The Congress has the opportunity to review and decide whether to uphold or override the vetoes. In order to override them, Congress needs a vote of the absolute majority of its members – two-thirds majority in both the Chamber of Deputies and the Federal Senate.
