History
The previous institution that managed the Brazilian ports was Empresa de Portos do Brasil S.A. (Portobrás), created by Law 6222/1975[2] and extinct by Law 8630/1993.[3]
In 2007, the Secretariat of Ports of the Presidency of the Republic (SEP/PR) was created by Provisory Measure 369/2007,[4] which was converted into Law 11518/2017.[5]
In 2010, Law 12314 converts the Special Secretariat of ports into Secretariat of Ports, both as a cabinet-level position.[6]
In 2016, Law 13341 dissolves the Secretariat of Ports of the Presidency of the Republic, merging its attributions to the Ministry of Transports, renamed to Ministry of Transports, Port and Civil Aviation.[7]
