Hugo Motta says he should vote on application workers project by April
Hugo Motta, president of the Chamber of Deputies, said this Tuesday (10th) that the House intends to vote on the project on application workers by April. The expectation is that negotiations will progress until the end of March, with a possible vote by deputies the following month.
The matter is being analyzed by a special committee designated to deal with the matter. The amount paid for each race, however, continues to be debated among those involved in the construction of the text.
The statement was given after a meeting at the Official Residence, which brought together ministers from the Lula government (PT) and the project’s rapporteur at the House, deputy Augusto Coutinho (Republicanos-PE).

To smooth over the issue with the Planalto, the ministers of the General Secretariat of the Presidency, Guilherme Boulos, of Labor, Luiz Marinho, and the minister of Institutional Relations, Gleisi Hoffmann, also participated in the meeting.
According to participants, even with the meeting, there remains an impasse regarding the minimum price to be charged for each race or delivery made through the platforms.
The rapporteur suggests the value of R$8.50, but there are disagreements about the acceptance of this point by the government, which defended a higher value, at the same time that platforms are also pushing for a lower value.
According to Motta, the construction of the text seeks an agreement that is as “balanced” as possible, but said that “it is not healthy to have millions of workers in the country who work without any guarantee from the point of view of these platforms”.
The rapporteur states that there are still points to advance in the construction of the text, but defined the meeting as “very good”.
— We still have points to advance. This point of the minimum delivery value is one of them. For our part, we want to maximize the gain for the worker, but it is important to say that R$10 in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro or Brasília is not the same as R$10 in the interior of Pernambuco — stated the rapporteur, when considering the floor discussed so as not to make “service at the end” unfeasible.
Coutinho also stated that discussions with parliamentarians continue this week to reach an agreement.
