The article aims to present the intense exchange of vacancies in the standing committees of the Chamber of Deputies. It was adopted a longitudinal approach to the party composition of all standing committees installed in the Chamber of Deputies, in the period between 1991 and 2022. This is an exploratory, documentary analysis. Centrality measures that are closely associated with the possibility of embarrassment or influence of a given actor/party were elucidated. It was mobilized a set of network analysis techniques and models to demonstrate the occurrence of intense movement of vacancies in the composition of standing committees between the different parties represented in the Chamber of Deputies, regardless of the presidential administration. It is possible to risk saying, based on the data presented and notes, that this is not a specific phenomenon of a given moment, of a government or of a given coalition formation. The exchange of seats involves all parties and/or party blocs and all standing committees.
