What problem does the commitment aim to address?

The Mais Transparência Portal is a platform that allows citizens to consult the information provided by the State in a more accessible way, reinforcing their relationship of trust with the Public Administration. More than just accountability, transparency is also one of the pillars of citizenship.

The Mais Transparência Portal was launched in April 2021 with the commitment to share and disseminate information in a clear and intelligible way with civil society, facilitating their participation in topics that concern everyone on a daily basis and promoting citizens, greater transparency. This platform was designed to evolve and grow with new areas and more information progressively, following an iterative and incremental development approach and covering a wide range of thematic areas of the relationship between citizens and the State at its different levels..

This commitment makes it possible to share and disseminate administrative and fiscal information in a clear and intelligible way with civil society, facilitating their participation in issues that concern everyone on a daily basis and promoting greater administrative and fiscal transparency to citizens.

 

What are the causes of the problem?

The lack of public information regarding tax benefits and the non-existence of an online space “Tax Benefits Area” with systematically updated information made available to citizens in accessible language regarding tax expenditure.

 

What results do we want to achieve by implementing this commitment?

Providing information on tax expenditure is a measure that benefits citizens, the government and society as a whole. Some of the most important benefits of transparency over fiscal spending include strengthening accountability, legitimacy, integrity, inclusiveness and quality of administrative and fiscal decisions, which could ultimately build trust between governments and citizens.
