With The Price Of Cooking Gas On The Rise, The Government Created Aid For The Population In Social Vulnerability And Has Begun To Release It In The Northeast Region

With the aim of helping low-income people who are facing difficulties in purchasing one of the products that has increased the most in the market, the Government created the Vale Gás Program, which has already begun to provide access to the aid in the states of the northeastern region of the country, such as Maranhão and Ceará, which are already receiving it.

The Economic Crisis And The Rise In Cooking Gas Prices

Living Through One Of The Biggest Economic Crises Ever Seen, The Brazilian Population Is Receiving Much Less Than The Necessary Amount To Cover Their Expenses, Not To Mention That Some Self-employed Workers, Due To The Pandemic, Cannot Leave Their Homes.

Because Of These Situations, Some States In The Northeast, Such As Ceará And Maranhão, Have Already Started Receiving The Vale Gás. Still Due To The Pandemic, The Increase In Product Prices Has Been An Obstacle For Various Consumers. One Of These Products Is Cooking Gas, Given That The Average Price Is R$ 80.

Approval Of The Vale Gás 2021

In March, The Proposal Was Already Being Discussed By The Government (Previously Presented In Another Article By CPG). The Author Of The Proposal Was Senator Paulo Paim (PT-RS), However, There Were Some Obstacles, Such As The Amount Of Aid, Which Would Need To Undergo Some Changes Since Prices Vary By Region.

At That Time, There Was No Forecast For When The Aid, Which Would Help Those In Need, Would Be Made Available By The Government, And There Was A Significant Chance That The Idea Would Not Be Approved, As The Planalto Was Trying To Avoid New Spending As Much As Possible.

With Paim’s Idea For The Vale Gás 2021, Low-Income Individuals Would Be The Main Beneficiaries, And To Receive It, The Population Would Need To Be Registered In The Cadúnico, Which Is The Same List Used To Determine Who Is In Or Out Of The Bolsa Família Program. According To Paim, To Receive The Government Aid, Individuals Would Need To Have A Per Capita Income Lower Than Half The Minimum Wage.

Learn How The Vale Gás Program Works In The Northeast

For The Northeastern Region, Particularly In The State Of Maranhão, The Vale Gás Is Already Being Distributed. The Delivery Began At The Beginning Of This Month Of May And Has Already Covered Approximately 115 Families. As Previously Mentioned, It Is Essential That The Consumer Is Registered In The Cadúnico And Can Prove That They Have No Source Of Income.

The Screening Is Being Conducted By The Social Assistance Reference Center (CRAS) And By The Maranhense Institute Of Socioeconomic And Cartographic Studies (IMESC). Those Who Have Already Received The Aid Will Have The Right To Receive Up To Three Refills Of The Vale Gás. It Is Important To Note That It Is Necessary For The Citizen To Have A Gas Cylinder To Make The Refill.
