Brazil's Congress to resume pension voting - Malan

Reuters, Wednesday, October 28, 1998 at 10:11

BRASILIA, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Brazil's Finance Minister
Pedro Malan said on Wednesday that he expects Congress to vote
on outstanding social security reforms beginning next week.
During a presentation of the government's three-year fiscal
plan, Malan said the government also plans to send a tax reform
bill to Congress in coming weeks.
Malan presented to the media the government's fiscal
adjustment plan, aimed at saving and raising 28 billion reais
next year. In 1999, Brazil plans to raise 13.2 billion reais
from an increase in taxes and save some 15 billion reais from
spending cuts, he said.
The ministry's Pedro Parente is slated to respond to
questions about the measures at 1:30 p.m. (1530 gmt).
Malan said the government will prepare a fiscal
responsibility law by Dec. 4 in a bid to institutionalize
spending controls.
The government also plans to send legislation to Congress
soon enabling the administrative reforms approved earlier this
year to be carried out, Malan said.
