Bringing together opinions drafted by members of the IAB’s Standing Committee on Criminal Law, the work contains papers approved by the IAB Plenary and forwarded to the National Congress, intended to contribute to the improvement of the legitimate and democratic legal order. The legal opinion authored by Christiano Fragoso addresses the Proposed Constitutional Amendment seeking to empower police authorities and the Public Prosecutor’s Office to access the financial and tax records of a person under investigation, based on the premise that such data—for investigative purposes—would no longer be protected by the individual guarantee of financial or banking data confidentiality. The legal opinions issued by Rodrigo Falk Fragoso address the Proposed Constitutional Amendment seeking to create a “Tribunal for Administrative Misconduct”—based on the argument that acts of corruption go unpunished—and the Bill aiming to define new acts of administrative misconduct, reflecting a clear trend of bringing Administrative Sanctioning Law closer to Criminal Law.
