2. (U) Summary.  Brazil's National Council to Combat 
Piracy and Intellectual Property Crimes (Council) has 
formulated a national plan consisting of 91 measures, 
broken down into three categories based on their 
expected timeframe for implementation. The Council 
expects to be able to implement 38 measures within 6 
months, including a national media campaign, 
escalation of police operations, and the formation of 
specialized IPR units in the Federal Police and 
Federal Highway Police.  At the March 8 Bilateral 
Consultative Mechanism meeting, the GoB will provide 
an update to their September report on copyright 
enforcement and the Executive Secretary of the Council 
will make a presentation on the Council and the 
national plan.  End Summary. 
 
Background - National Council 
 
3. (U) Last November, the GoB formed a high-level 
National Council to Combat Piracy and Intellectual 
Property Crimes (Council), to a large extent in 
response to pressure from the USG in the form of a 
review of Brazil's trade benefits under the 
Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program 
(reftel). The Council is presided over by the well- 
respected Vice-Minister of Justice, Luiz Paulo 
Barreto.  Marcio Costa de Menezes e Goncalves, who 
hails from the audiovisual private sector, has now 
been tapped to work full-time as Executive Secretary 
of the Council, and is responsible for providing its 
day-to-day direction.  The Council is comprised of 
high-level government officials, leading IPR industry 
representatives and congressional staffers. 
 
National Plan 
 
4. (SBU) On March 1, Otavio Brandelli, head of 
Itamaraty's IPR Division, provided econoff with a 
readout of the Council's three-day meeting (February 
26-28) in which a national anti-piracy plan was 
formulated.  With clear enthusiasm, Brandelli 
described that an expert in public planning had led 
the group through a marathon session in which the 
council constructed a national plan through a wholly 
collaborative effort - first with the group labeling 
the problem, then defining it further, and finally 
brainstorming to propose and agree on ideas for 
effectively attacking the problem. 
 
5. (SBU) The end result was a list of 91 measures, 
broken down into categories of short-term (6 months), 
medium-term (1 year), and long-term (2 years), based 
on their expected time-frame for implementation, 
although work is supposed to commence immediately on 
all 91 measures (see para 10 below for an unofficial 
translation of the measures).  Brandelli stressed that 
all the measures were adopted by consensus; he noted 
that an additional six to seven measures are going to 
be discussed during the Council's next meeting on 
March 17.  According to Brandelli, the process was 
productive not only for the resulting plan, but also 
in forging cohesiveness and a high-level of commitment 
within the group as it afforded all participants a 
"buy-in." 
 
6. (U) Thirty-eight measures fall into the short-term 
category, including a national media campaign, an 
escalation of police operations, and the formation of 
specialized IPR units within the Federal Police and 
Federal Highway Police.  Creation of a national 
database falls into measures that will be implemented 
over the longer-term. 
7. (SBU) In a separate discussion with Carlos Alberto 
de Camargo of the Association for the Defense of 
Intellectual Property and of the Motion Picture 
Association, he described the biggest challenge for 
implementation of the national plan as funding.  He 
identified two budgetary sources: the National Fund 
for Public Security at the federal level, and state 
governments.  The Ministry of Justice is responsible 
for lining up implementation resources.  Additional 
resources may be sought by seeking "collaborators" for 
implementation of specific measures; he noted that USG 
involvement would be welcome.  (Note, certain measures 
of the national plan could fit comfortably within 
potential technical assistance projects administered 
by Department of Justice OPDAT.)  Camargo assured 
econoff that in instances where the Council lacked 
institutional authority to direct the action of 
another governmental body, resulting in a measure in 
the form of a "recommendation," the intention of the 
Council is to go beyond recommending and to work 
directly with the entity involved to ensure 
implementation. 
 
8. (U) The Brazilian delegation to the Bilateral 
Consultative Mechanism (BCM) meeting on March 8 in 
Washington will provide an update to the report on 
copyright enforcement the GoB presented at last 
September's BCM meeting.  They plan to provide data on 
police actions, as available, including raids in well- 
known market places.  The centerpiece of their 
presentation will be a report given by Marcio Costa de 
Menezes e Goncalves, Executive Secretary of the 
Council, on the national plan. 
 
9. (U) Consulates Rio and Sao Paulo will report on 
private sector perspectives toward the Council and the 
national plan in septels. 
 
10. (U) Unofficial translation of the list of measures 
identified as comprising Brazil's national plan to 
combat piracy follow.  The measures are divided into 
categories that reflect the expected timeframe for 
implementation.
