Pasta, breads, pigs, poultry and fish escape from increase in tribute

The Board concluded on Thursday (25) to vote on the project that reduces the release of payroll and approved amendments that reduce the gain that the Government could have with the measure. The farm had this additional revenue to meet its goal of Treasury economics this year, r $ 55,3 billion. The Bill goes to the Senate.
The Government proposed to more than double the tax rates levied on revenues of 56 sectors benefit from exemption in the first Government Dilma Rousseff.
Instead of paying the SOCIAL SECURITY contribution of 20% of the payroll, they had been paying 1% or 2% (depending on the sector) about the billing, rate that the Government wished to raise to 2.5% and 4.5%, respectively.
The Board, however, some productive sectors were excluded from the general rule. For transport, communication (newspaper and broadcasting companies), call center, footwear and apparel, a 50% increase in taxation.
Companies of pasta, breads, pigs, poultry and fish were spared from the increased tax burden and kept the original rates.
According to the rapporteur, Mr project Leonardo Picciani (PMDB-RJ), the rates of taxation approved will render a collection of extra $ 10 billion a year.
In announcing the exemption, reduction in February, the Minister Joaquim Levy (Farm) said the new model would yield $ 12.8 billion to the public coffers.
Picciani's account, however, does not consider the inclusion of clothing between sectors benefit from a more favourable taxation, decided this Thursday.
"I don't think there is a major impact," said the rapporteur, who is leader of the PMDB in the Chamber. "Anyone who knows this House know that a measure of this nature never go out as he came," said the Mayor, Eduardo Cunha (PMDB-RJ). "Then he [Levy] probably should have sent with more fat than needed."
"We didn't lose, we win," said the leader of the Government in the House, Congressman José Guimarães (PT-CE), arguing that the measure was difficult to approval.
For the parliamentary approval of the reduction of the exemption was a "victory for the country," given the need to adjust the public accounts.
FREE ZONE
Another amendment to the approved project this Thursday deleted a text change the rules of the taxation of production of soft drinks in the Manaus free trade zone.
The measure, incorporated into the text by Picciani in conjunction with the Government, would generate an extra collection of r $ 2.5 billion a year.
That would offset part of the losses with the maintenance of some sectors without increased taxation.
