The bill deals with the sale of tickets to sporting, social, promotional or cultural events.
The bill deals with the sale of tickets to sporting, social, promotional or cultural events. It amends Law No. 1.521/1951 to make it a crime to sell, offer for sale or carry for sale a ticket at a price above the one set by the organizer, in addition to forging or defrauding tickets.
The subject of this bill was chosen by artificial intelligence and may be wrong: The main focus is creating crimes (public safety), but it also deals with ticket sales and the protection of the popular economy and of consumers; two automatic readings chose different subjects (Public Safety and Labor and Rights); the words in the official summary (ementa) suggest Culture, Sport and Tourism.
