The ordinance also provides for partnerships between the federal government and companies in the sector, as well as the ‘promotion of awareness-raising, education and training actions, including for athletes, coaches, referees, club professionals, athletes’ managers and people in positions of governance or administration in sport, with the aim of strengthening the fight against match-fixing’.
‘The development of educational plans can count on the participation of sports organisations and civil society,’ it says.
The Ministry of Sport will also be able to establish partnerships with specialised bodies in order to detect, ‘by means of monitoring systems, suspicious patterns and anomalous behaviour at sporting events’.
