HOUSE BILL NO. ________ 
Introduced by Hon. Amparo Maria J. Zamora 
EXPLANATORY NOTE 
This is a re-filed version of House Bill (H.B.) No. 4753 introduced by Former 
Representative Maria Laarni Cayetano during the 18th Congress. The bill was 
approved on third and final reading on November 4, 2019 and has been transmitted 
and received by Senate on November 5, 2019.  
Thus, this bill seeks to invoke the 1987 Constitution and RA 7160 by allowing 
Barangay North Signal Village to be entitled to a just share from the national taxes.  
Barangay Pinagsama, located within the City of Taguig, Metro Manila, is one 
such barangay excluded from a share in the IRA. It has a land area of Six Hundred 
Twenty Two Thousand Seven Hundred square meters (622,700 sq.m.), more or less, 
and a population of Thirty Four Thousand   Six Hundred Thirty Four (34,634).  It is 
bounded on the North   by   the   property   of   the   Bases Conversion and 
Development Authority (BCDA-Palakol Area and Pinagsama Village Phase II); on the 
South by M.R.T. Avenue (formerly Cuasay Street); on the East by the property of 
BCDA (Palakol Area-Pag-asa) and Dream Land Village; and on the West by E.P.  
Housing Village Phase 2, Sampaloc Street and a creek. 
Having thus complied with the requisites prescribed under Section 386 of the 
Local Government Code and the plebiscite requirement contained in Section 10, 
Article X of the Constitution, it was separated from the original Barangay Signal and 
created as a separate barangay by the City Government of Taguig, acting through the

Sangguniang Panlungsod, under City Ordinance No. 58-2008. Its corporate existence 
began when its first set of regular officials was elected, pursuant to Section 14 of the 
Local Government Code. 
In view of these considerations, and in the face of resonating and unified public 
clamor for a clear and immediate legislative remedy to the matter at hand, the 
immediate approval of this bill is highly and earnestly sought. 
HON. AMPARO MARIA J. ZAMORA
