Text Approved by the Administration and Public Service Commission Includes Additional Time on Tests and New Accessibility Guarantees for Candidates with ASD and ADD, Strengthening Equality in Brazilian Public Competitions

The Administration and Public Service Commission (CASP) of the Chamber of Deputies approved the substitute for Bill 4848/23, authored by Deputy Maria Arraes (Solidarity-PE).

The text, reported by Leo Prates (PDT-BA), makes it a crime to charge additional fees, refuse, or cancel enrollment of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in public or private educational institutions. The penalty provided is two to five years of imprisonment, in addition to a fine.

The substitute also incorporates changes previously approved by the Education Commission, which expand the rights guaranteed to individuals with ASD and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in the Brazilian Inclusion Law (BIL).

Among the new guarantees are preferential treatment, sign language translation, use of assistive technology resources, and granting extra time for taking exams for competitions and academic activities—provided that prior request and proof of need are submitted.

Initially, the CASP text only provided for an additional hour in public competition tests, but the current version has been expanded to include other forms of accessibility.

According to Leo Prates, the approved measures “promote equality of conditions in public and educational competitions, in accordance with the Constitution, which ensures fundamental rights and prohibits any form of discrimination.”

The project will now proceed for conclusive analysis in the Committee on Constitution, Justice and Citizenship (CCJ). If approved, it will still need to go through the chambers of the House and the Senate before it becomes law.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.

“It doesn’t look like India”: British architect praises urban planning, cleanliness, and safety of this planned city in a country with 1,476,625,576 inhabitants

Heir worked at thirteen in an ice cream factory without revealing he was the owner’s son; today, at twenty-five, he leads the best-selling ice cream brand for home consumption in the Northeast, grosses almost R$ 300 million, has 145 stores, and competes with multinationals with regional flavors.

The largest gas ship ever ordered will cross the oceans hoisting giant rigid sails that retract automatically to save fuel.

As the Trump name returns to the high-end real estate market, Ivanka Trump announces the Sazan project; Mediterranean island set to feature hotels, beaches, leisure, and exclusive residences.

Unemployed and with a child to support, Joab turned hot coffee into a fresh start: he wakes up at 2 a.m., sells on Anhanguera, lets drivers pay later through the “trust Pix,” and conquers the internet even when some continue their journey without depositing.
