Brazilian Chamber Panel Approves Immediate School Enrollment for Children of Transferred Security Personnel

The measure targets school disruption faced by families when security professionals are reassigned to new cities.

Overview

  • Lawmakers on the Chamber’s Constitution and Justice Committee approved PL 3559/2023, which guarantees prompt placement in public schools for dependents after a transfer to another city.
  • The bill is authored by Deputy Eriberto Medeiros (PSB-PE).
  • The text explicitly covers agents of the Military, Federal and Civil Police, the Federal Highway Police, penal and scientific police, the Military Fire Department, and municipal guards.
  • A change endorsed by the Education Commission clarified and broadened the list of beneficiaries, which rapporteur Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) said makes the proposal clearer and more technically rigorous.
  • Because the bill follows conclusive procedure, it proceeds to the Senate unless deputies request a review by the full Plenary.
