MMA Redirects Consultation on Law No. 15.022/2020 to WTO Process
On May 13, the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MMA) launched a public consultation on the draft Decree intended to implement Law No. 15.022 of November 13, 2024 on the official page Participa + Brasil. The public consultation, which was open to interested parties on the government’s platform was cancelled a few days later.
The same proposal was then notified to the World Trade Organization (WTO) through a WTO notification. Only WTO Members countries can make comments on the draft, meaning that the general public would not be able to do it. The only plausible way to submit comments from companies and public entities is through national WTO TBT Enquiry Points.
The draft submitted to the WTO remains unchanged from the one published on the page Participa + Brasil. There is no official timeline for the final regulation to be published. Stakeholders are advised to monitor forthcoming developments closely, particularly any updates regarding the implementation timeline and reporting obligations.
