Muriel Vasconcellos Jan 15, 2012:
I think the text is unclear It seems to me that the ministry's mandate would be to make decisions *after* all administrative remedies have been exhausted. Why would it intervene with a decision if these remedies have not yet been pursued and exhausted? That would be like stepping in and contravening the law.

Portuguese term (edited): desde que não esteja] esgotada a instância administrativa

[after] all administrative remedies have been exhausted

Although your question didn't include the first part of the clause, I'm going on record that I think there's a problem in the text. See my argument in the Discussion above.
