Simone Tebet defends the expansion of more resources for women

The Minister of Planning and Budget, Simone Tebet, informed, this Friday (16th), that she intends to increase the resources for women and criticized the fact of assigning the budget of public policies in the women’s quota. “The man also receives the Bolsa Família. We receive the Bolsa Família for our children, so why is it included in the quota for the woman?”, She asked her.

According to the minister, the amount destined for the female public corresponds to R$ 360 billion, only 0.01% of the resources are applied in specific public policies for this segment of the population. There is still no forecast of how much will be invested from 2024 to 2027.

In addition to income distribution programs, the construction of day care centers is also included in the female resources account. “It doesn’t enter the general budget, it enters the women’s budget”, said the minister during the PPA (Pluriannual Planning) Participatory event in Tocantins.
