TCE-SP suspends São Paulo Lottery concession process pending review
The São Paulo State Court of Auditors ordered the state not to proceed with the lottery concession contract until it makes a further decision, suspending the process after a complaint by the Aposta Vencedora Consortium. The state Partnerships and Investments Secretariat has five days to respond to the disputed points, including alleged issues with the competing consortium’s qualification documents and surety bonds.
The suspension delays the concession award while the court examines objections to the competing consortium’s qualification.
