Members of the economic team acknowledged that the government is already studying the extension of the R $ 600 emergency aid paid to informal workers beyond the originally planned three months. To that end, there are two paths. One is to extend the benefits for two or two months. The other is to create a basic income plan that will be implemented after the peak of the pandemic.

On Tuesday, the economy ministry denied that measures such as emergency aid “are here to stay,” which had been admitted by Carlos da Costa, special secretary for productivity, employment and competitiveness. However, government sources admit that the portfolio is under pressure to expand profit and make it permanent.

If the 600-reais payment is extended for another month or two, the reason is that there is a high degree of uncertainty about when economic activity will return to normal. The Ministry of Economy has not yet agreed on the possibility of generating basic income after the peak of the pandemic.
