The Board examines proposed banning restaurants and bars serving any product not requested by the client, as known couverts. Under the bill, if the establishment does not serve the requested item, the product should be considered a courtesy, ie, can not be charged. The measure is provided in the Bill 4417/12, the former deputy Major Fabio (DEM-PB).

The Consumer Defense Code (Law 8078/90) already prevents suppliers of products or services delivered to the consumer without any previous request item. "However, we believe that our proposal is in addition to already established by legislation clarifying that whatever is served to consumers without their request should be considered as complimentary and therefore can not be charged," he said.

conduct
The proposal will be considered conclusively by the Committees on Consumer Protection, and the Constitution, Justice and Citizenship.
