Camara Legislativa Do Distrito Federal

What Camara Legislativa Do Distrito Federal does

The Câmara Legislativa do Distrito Federal (CLDF) is the unicameral legislative chamber of Brazil's Federal District, headquartered at Praça Municipal, Quadra 2, Lote 5 in Brasília's Civic-Administrative Zone. Founded in 1991 and currently in its 35th year of operation under the 2023-2026 legislature (9th Legislature, 4th Session), the institution is composed of 24 distrital deputies who exercise lawmaking, representation, and legislative oversight on behalf of approximately 3 million residents of the Federal District. The chamber is led by President Deputado Wellington Luiz and a Mesa Diretora, with operational arms including the Secretaria-Geral, Procuradoria Especial da Mulher, Procuradoria da Pessoa Idosa (Pro60+), Procuradoria da Juventude, Corregedoria, and the Conselho de Ética e Decoro Parlamentar.

CLDF's core technology stack consists of government-grade platforms: the Portal SEI (Sistema Eletrônico de Informações) for electronic document and process management, SIGGO/SIGOF for integrated governmental budgetary and financial management, and the TV Câmara Distrital broadcasting channel operated via YouTube. Supporting civic-facing platforms include the Portal da Transparência, the Diário da Câmara Legislativa (DCL) official gazette, an open data portal (Dados Abertos) at dados.cl.df.gov.br, a DSpace-based Biblioteca Digital, and the Ouvidoria citizen complaint channel. Specialized services include the Escola do Legislativo (Elegis) for civic and political education, the Câmara Cultural division (which administers the Troféu Câmara Legislativa film award, created 1996), and the FASCAL health assistance fund for deputies and civil servants. The institution holds LGPD compliance certification for data protection.

CLDF does not operate a commercial revenue model. It is funded entirely through public budgetary allocations from the Federal District government, with a 2026 Dotação Inicial of R$ 998,325,800.00 and R$ 512,859,054.72 in expenses committed through June 2026 (51.3% of the authorized budget). The Federal District's 2027 LDO projects R$ 74.97 billion in total district revenue. Sub-units include the wholly-owned FASCAL healthcare fund and the Escola do Legislativo (Elegis). Strategic vendor and cooperation relationships in 2026 include a five-year Technical Cooperation Agreement with the Secretaria de Estado de Educação do DF (SEE/DF), a five-year hospital services contract with REDE ÍMPAR (Hospital Águas Claras) via FASCAL, credentialing contracts with IMOI and Clínica de Olhos Teixeira Pinto, and a legal information subscription with Editora Forum.
