HOUSE BILL NO. 1030

Introduced by Representative JOEY SARTE SALCEDA

AN ACT
EXTENDING THE BARANGAY OFFICIAL ELIGIBILITY (BOE)
TO THE SANGGUNIANG KABATAAN (SK) OFFICIALS

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill shall be known as the “Sangguniang Kabataan Barangay Official Eligibility (BOE)
Act.” This bill extends Barangay Official Eligibility to the Sangguniang Kabataan Kagawads.
Currently, only the Barangay Officials, Treasurers and Secretaries have Barangay Official
Eligibility. Right now, the Barangay Official Eligibility are granted to the following Barangay
Officials: Punong Barangay/Barangay Captain, regular Sangguniang Barangay Members, and
Sangguniang Kabataan Chairmen; and Appointive Barangay Officials namely Barangay Treasurers
and Barangay Secretaries who are appointed by the duly elected Punong Barangay.

The Barangay Official Eligibility shall be considered appropriate for appointment to first
level positions in the career service, except positions covered by board laws and/or those that
require other special eligibilities as determined by the Commission, or those that require licenses.
The reason is the age requirement is now virtually the same — 18 years old above for Barangay
Officials and ages 18 to 24 for Sangguniang Kabataan Kagawads.

Furthermore, the higher purpose of this bill is to fortify the participation of the youth in
nation building which promotes and protects physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual and social well-
being, and inculcate the value of patriotism, nationalism and other desirable values, and encourages
their involvement in public and civic affairs.

In view of the foregoing, the passage of this bill is earnestl:
