A prática do consensualismo no Tribunal de Contas de Mato Grosso por meio das Mesas Técnicas: efetividade do controle dialógico

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the theoretical background and the implementation of the Technical Boards, which have been adopted as a consensualist procedure within the Mato Grosso State Court of Auditors. The aim is to demonstrate that the evolution and transformation of the sanctioning logic of traditional external control mechanisms, brought about by the spread of institutional dialogue and consensualism, have culminated in the implementation of new techniques and procedures that are important for achieving democratic constitutional objectives and values. In view of this, the paper is based on the following problem: what is the legal nature of the Technical Boards set up by the Mato Grosso Court of Auditors, and what influenced the creation of this new procedure? To this end, the deductive technique and bibliographic review procedure are adopted, firstly to present the consensual and dialogical institutes developed within the Powers, and then specifically to present the institution of the Technical Boards within the Mato Grosso Court of Auditors, based on the delimitation of the existing regulatory framework and the presentation of some of the cases processed before them, which demonstrate the effectiveness of external control through this consensual procedure. The study shows how the resolution of administrative conflicts through the Technical Boards is in line with the national and international policies of pacifying social relations and how it can bring significant benefits.
