Minuta de ato - CONSULTA PÚBLICA
Record of / procurement / action taken - PUBLIC INVITATION TO TENDER


Explanation:
As per Lara B., more info. is needed, at least whether from Portugal, Angola or Brazil etc.

One thing is for sure, it's unlikely to mean an extract from a motor-car log-book.

Otherwise, there is no need for anyone to lift my answer de novo.

Example sentence(s):
  • IATE: pt minuta cadastral COM en cadastral field sheet > UK: Land Reg. index map search ? COM
  • Record of procurement actions. A. The director shall maintain a record listing all contracts in excess of an amount to be determined by regulation made under section 41-2536 or 41-2537 for a minimum of five years

Draft Bill


Explanation:
I believe "bill" would be a better translation for "ato" in the sense that "bill" is the draft (projeto de lei) and not the law (or act) itself. Once passed, a bill becomes law.

minuta: primeira redação de um texto; RASCUNHO (Aulete)

It would make more sense to open a bill to open consultation!

PS: I meant to say "open a bill to public consultation".

Example sentence(s):
  • This part of the consultation... is not public, but depending on the political salience of the issue, Ministries may use the internet or mass media to inform the public. The subsequent official consultation phase involves the circulation of a draft bill.
