On May 7, 2015, Attorney General Luís Inácio Adams said at a seminar on the Anticorruption Law that 51 thousand CNPJs of suppliers, investors and service providers depend on the 23 investigated contractors, and defended applying the law without 'serial shutdown' of companies; the head of the CGU, Valdir Simão, stated that leniency agreements would only be concluded with repair of the damage and preservation of the public interest, and that the TCU would need to weigh in.
