Impediments to the execution of the imposing budget and the damage to the planning of the State’s activity

Abstract

Constitutional amendments no. 86, of March 17, 2015, n. 100, of June 26, 2019 and no. 105, of December 12, 2019, instituted and disciplined modalities and forms of execution of the so-called “mandatory budget”, characterized by the mandatory execution of budgetary programming from individual parliamentary amendments and from State or Federal District benches. It highlights the role that parliamentary amendments play for the governance of the country in the context of coalition presidentialism, and that the creation of the imposing budget was not able to remove political patronage and still causes an interference in the planning of the state’s activity, especially with regard to the implementation of public policies.
