Resumo: |
The present paper intends to construe the content of the constitutional rule that governs the direct and indirect provision of specific and divisible utility services from the point of view of the Tax Law and end users rights and guarantees. Such rule will be construed under the constitutional provision section 145(II) of the Constitutional Tax System combined with section 175 in the Economic Order. The purpose herein is to show that the amounts paid by end users always have a taxable nature, seeing that for the Constitution the utility service is a res extra commercio (it is a utility and not a product), regardless of its provider, which implies the absence of profit in such provision. For that reason, in its section 145(II) the constitutional text provides a specific tax instrument to remunerate the provision of such services without distinguishing whether it is provided directly by the State or indirectly by a private party, a public utility company. Furthermore, section 175 of the Federal Constitution does not provide any other instrument to remunerate indirect utility services provision. The rate policy which under constitutional provision is established by nonconstitutional rule is related to the services agreement between the Administration and the services provider. This is a legal relationship where the end user is not involved at all. The proposal herein is to understand the rate policy as the combination between the rate paid by the user to face service costs, and which has a taxable nature, and other revenues, such as subsidies, alternative revenues and tax revenues to warrant a fair remuneration to the services provider (profits and investments). Pragmatically, the existence of a parafiscal tax relationship between the end user and the services provider may be conceived upon the Administration s delegation of its taxable capacity to the services provider that is the actual collector of such tax. Finally, this construction, in addition to warranting that the end user will remunerate only the cost of the services, as guaranteed by section 145(II) of the Federal Constitution, will grant to the services provider: (a) the possibility of excluding the amount collected as rate from the tax base of the taxes incident on its operational income; (b) the lawful remuneration of potentially usable utilities |
