The Legal Nature of Consortia and the consequences brought by Law No. 11.107/05

Abstract

The associated management of public services by forming consortia of federal entities (cities, states and Union) is an execution of primordial state activities, such as healthcare, where demand is growing and is not always won by the distribution system collection, then in force. The federal agreement is better engineered in a cooperative way, because it allows the custom application of features and services, meeting each region according to their real needs. And Law No. 11.107/05 came precisely regulate a practice that was installed some time ago, in order to give more transparency and control the actions of managers of these consortia, while also bringing with it some legal uncertainties arising from poor legislative drafting.
