Sources: 8. Developments: 2. The Brazilian Senate has seen progress on two distinct legislative proposals. In early November, the Senate Oversight and Control Commission approved Bill 805/2024. This bill, authored by Senator Ciro Nogueira, targets planned obsolescence and seeks to regulate the right to repair by amending the Consumer Defense Code. The proposal requires manufacturers to ensure the availability of replacement parts for five to 20 years and prohibits the refusal of repairs conducted outside authorized networks. Violations could lead to fines between R$ 10,000 and R$ 50 million. Shortly after, the Infrastructure Services Commission approved Bill 4.621/2024, which establishes the National Policy for the Incentive of Engine Manufacturing (PNIFM). Authored by Senator Esperidião Amin, this policy aims to bolster domestic production and reduce dependence on imported components. The bill emphasizes technological neutrality, focusing on low-carbon technologies like hydrogen and biofuels, while encouraging research into electric and hybrid vehicles through public-private partnerships. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-10: Brazil Senate committee approves national engine manufacturing policy The Brazilian Senate's Infrastructure Services Commission approved a bill to incentivize domestic engine manufacturing, aiming to reduce import dependency and promote low-carbon technologies. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/brazil-senate-committee-approves-national-engine-manufacturing-policy ### 2026-11-04: Brazilian Senate committee approves bill against planned obsolescence A Brazilian Senate committee approved a bill to ban planned obsolescence and guarantee consumer rights to repair products and access spare parts. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/brazilian-senate-committee-approves-bill-against-planned-obsolescence --- Cite as: Brazilian Senate legislative developments.
