As it is bad for health, as it is bad for Brazilians&#8217; pockets, we have to tighten regulations&#8221;, stated Durigan.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minister also highlighted that<strong> tax collection does not have the primary objective of filling public coffers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This taxation serves to <strong>demand social responsibility from foreign platforms, ensuring that they respect national laws.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s not enough for these companies to enter the country and not obey Brazilian rules&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Bets pay taxes not because the government wants to collect taxes, but because we recognized that they had a presence in the Brazilian economy and had to start collaborating with the country&#8221;, he explained.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New task force promises to free up access to archived processes<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minister also rebutted criticism about the <strong>supposed lack of transparency in operators&#8217; licensing documents.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He<strong> denied any attempt to hide information<\/strong>, justifying that previous<strong> refusals happened only to protect the businessmen&#8217;s private banking details.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To resolve the impasse quickly, the ministry organized a<strong> major interministerial action.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;What I asked is that, instead of receiving individual requests, take all the processes that have already passed through the secretariat, do a task, we ask the CGU to support us, we will proactively disseminate the data&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Finance decided to adopt a much stricter stance in relation to the online gaming market, seeking to curb the expansion of betting in Brazil.
