| Message | If would be beneficial if the Sales Tax on essential goods could be directly tied to funding for Health and Social Services. Any money raised via this means should be guaranteed to be spent on those who need it. |
| Date | 22:04:20, March 14, 2018 CET | From | União Democrática do Tukarali | To | Debating the Fiscal Stability Act |
| Message | "Indirect taxes, especially those on essential goods, are always potentially unfair on those who are less well-off. It's a pity that a majority of this house followed the PRTs irresponsible and anti-social income tax proposal, and it is a pity that now the resultant loss in revenue is going to be compensated by making the poor pay more for essential goods." Bethânia Duarte, leader of the UDT |
