Today, President Jair Bolsonaro requested that the Federal Senate withdraw the nominations of Vinícius Klein and Leonardo Bandeira Rezende for the positions of commissioners in the Administrative Council for Economic Defense – CADE. , All of CADE’s procedure terms are currently suspended, due to a lack of quorum of CADE’s Tribunal, which only consists of three (3) members.
Vinícius Klein was nominated by Sérgio Moro to substitute former commissioner João Paulo de Resende in the Administrative Tribunal, while Leonardo Rezende was nominated by Paulo Guedes to substitute former commissioner Polyanna Vilanova. The government has not yet made new nominations.
