RAIL: Freight MP vote delayed after disagreement between government and +55-11-2767 6918

rapporteur

Andressa Varotto

According to Agencia iNFRA’s broadcast, the vote on MP 1,343/2026, known as the Analyst

Freight MP, was postponed after a stalemate between the government and andressa.varotto@ubs.com

rapporteur Ze Trovao over provisions included in the substitute text. The mixed +55-11-2767 6654

committee meeting scheduled to review the report was cancelled, with Rafael Simonetti

government representatives arguing that the draft included topics unrelated to the Associate Analyst

original scope of the MP. The measure, published in March, tightens penalties for rafael.simonetti@ubs.com

non-compliance with the minimum freight floor and allows ANTT to block CIOT +55-11-2767 6628

issuance for operations registered below the regulated minimum value. The MP

expires by July 16th if not approved by Congress. The preliminary report had

introduced changes aimed at reducing resistance from business groups, including

lowering fines for repeat offenders from R$1m–R$10m to R$100k–R$1m, and

adjusting recurrence criteria and precautionary measures. However, the draft

maintained the CIOT-blocking mechanism and original fines, which the rapporteur

said would not be negotiated. As a reminder, both prominent truck driver workers

association leaders and Congressperson Ze Trovao have claimed that a truck drivers

strike would happen if the MP is not approved by July 16th. Potential Impact:
