The vice president-elect, Geraldo Alckmin, announces this Monday (14), in São Paulo, new names of members of the technical groups of the Transition Cabinet.
Among the fields directly linked to the country’s economy, definitions are lacking in eight areas: infrastructure, mines and energy, social security, work, technology and innovation, agrarian development, fisheries and tourism.
For agriculture, cities (popular housing) and social programs and the fight against hunger, names have already been released, but there has not yet been an official publication of the indications.
This weekend, the names of TV presenter and chef Bela Gil were announced for the technical center to combat hunger, and that of former president of BNDES (National Bank for Economic and Social Development) Luciano Coutinho to compose the group industry, commerce and services.
