In order for the privatization process of the Santos Port Authority (Codesp) to take place, the inclusion of the state company in the National Privatization Plan (NPP) is needed. Only after this process is completed will the studies necessary to transfer the administration of the Port to the private sector begin.

The information was given by the Ministry of Economy. According to the portfolio, despite plans to privatize the company, it is currently included in the Investment Partnership Program and not in the NPP.

The information was ratified in a statement by Codesp itself and the Ministry of Infrastructure, to which Codesp remains administratively subordinate, without going to the Economy portfolio, different from that which was published in Monday’s issue (16) of A Tribuna. The transfer will occur only after the inclusion in the NPP, although there is no forecast of when this should happen.
