The counselor of the INE, Cyrus Murayama, refuses to accept the austerity plan proposed by the Federal Government, after considering that the proposal “verges on the ridiculous”, clinging to the refusal to reduce the cost of renting premises, travel and meals.
“The government proposed an austerity plan so that the INE reduce expenses. Among what they propose is that we stop paying leases. What does the INE rent? Almost 800 places like this. Modules for people to process their voting credentials”.
Previously, the counselor assured that “when the elections (badly done) were organized by the government (1988) they decided the expense”, but “today that there is an autonomous institute (the INE) the government does not command its decisions”.
