The proposal amends Law 9,615, of 1998, to include the Brazilian Confederation of Games and Esports (CBGE) in the National Sports System, which aims to promote and improve high-performance sports practices.
Furthermore, it amends Law 13.756 of 2018, increasing the percentage of resources from numerical prediction lotteries allocated to sports from the current 4.36% to 4.40%. This increase of 0.04 percentage points in revenue must be fully allocated to the CBGE.
Currently, other sports entities receive percentages collected by lotteries, such as the Brazilian Olympic Committee, which receives 1.73%; the Brazilian Paralympic Committee, with 0.96%; and the Brazilian Club Committee, which receives 0.46%.
The rapporteur of the project in the CEsp is Senator Rodrigo Cunha (Podemos-AL), who has not yet presented his opinion, but he also reported the matter in the CAE, where he expressed support for the initiative of Izalci Lucas (PL-DF).
