Cuiabá council advances repeal of municipal lottery law
Cuiabá City Council approved a legislative project to revoke the 2022 law that established the city’s public lottery service, after an extraordinary meeting on 19 February. The project, initiated by the city’s Executive Branch, received favourable opinions from two commissions and now goes to plenary discussion; it follows a Supreme Court order suspending municipal lottery laws and operations.
The proposed repeal could remove the legal basis for Cuiabá’s municipal lottery after a Supreme Court suspension order.
