Irregular items on the school material list remain the subject of questions from parents of students who come to the Municipal Secretariat for Consumer Protection and Protection (Procon-JP) to ask for guidance on what may or may not appear in this list. Another concern is whether the establishment can condition the sale of this material in the school itself to enrollment, including offering discounts.

In the first case, Procon-JP directs that schools can not ask parents what they are required to offer, such as products such as alcohol, cotton, balloons, blowballs, bubble wrap, hot glue stick, buttons , Swab, make-up, sequins, double-sided tape, durex, printer ribbon, flannel, printer toner, office supplies, liquid soap and disposable plates and cutlery.

Concerning the second concern of the parents, that of conditioning the sale of school material to enrollment, this may suggest the linkage of the sale of one product to another, which may characterize the married sale, provided for in the Code of Consumer Protection - CDC, subsection Article 39 (1), which deals with abusive practices. "The article prohibits the supplier from linking the sale of products or services to other goods, besides, without justification, imposing quantitative limits. So, if there is such conditioning, it's illegal, "said Ricardo Holanda, Procon-JP's secretary.

List - According to the secretary, these requests for clarification that are coming to the Secretariat by some parents are common concerns to all who have children in schools. "As far as lists are concerned, many also complain about their extension. So we are releasing, once again, the items that are considered irregular, "said Ricardo Holanda.

Attention - Ricardo Holanda explains that the school also can not say where the parents can buy this material, even that made available in the school itself or even indicating a bookstore. "If the school itself provides some items, it can not say where the consumer father should buy, since that limits the freedom of choice of the person and hurts free competition, which is prohibited by law."
