On 27 May 2021, Douglas Linares Flinto, an individual, submitted a specific instance to the Brazilian NCP alleging that a Brazilian multinational enterprise, in the Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply sector, had not observed the Concepts and Principles (Chapter I), Disclosure (Chapter III), Human Rights (Chapter IV), and Combating Bribery, Bribe Solicitations and Extortion (Chapter VII) provisions of the Guidelines. The issues were related to access and disclosure of personal information, similar to a previous case which had already been received by the same submitter.

On 24 September 2021, the Brazilian NCP adopted an initial assessment deciding not to accept the specific instance. This was on the grounds that the case too closely resembled a previous submission from the same submitter and no new facts were brought to light since the handling of the previous case.
