HOUSE BILLNO:_®74

Introduced by Hon. Cyrille F. Abueg-Zaldivar

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This is a re-filed bill introduced by Former Deputy Speaker Frederick F. Abueg
during the Sixteenth and Seventeenth (17") Congresses as House Bill (H.B.) Nos. 5761
and 7801, respectively. During the 17" Congress, the bill was passed on Third Reading on
August 14, 2018 and transmitted to the Senate of the Philippines on August 15, 2018.

As explained in H.B. No. 7801, the proposed bill seeks to create Barangay
Panacan-2 into a regular barangay unit in the Municipality of Narra, Province of Palawan
Passage of this bill will entitle Barangay Panacan-2 to its regular share in the Internal
Revenue Allotment (IRA), in accordance with Section 285 of the Local Government
Code, to ensure its capacity to address the needs of its residents and to provide sufficient
resources for the barangay’s continued development.

By virtue of Sangguniang Bayan ng Narra Resolution No. 875, Series of 2005 and
Sangguniang Panlalawigan ng Palawan Provincial Ordinance No. 935, Series of 2006, as
amended, duly ratified through a plebiscite conducted by the Commission on Elections
(COMELEC) on December 16, 2006, Barangay Panacan-2 was separated from Barangay
Panacan and created as a regular barangay unit in the Municipality of Narra

Despite the ratification and the election of its barangay officials, Barangay
Panacan-2 has never received its regular share in the IRA since its formal establishment in
2006. To date, its only source of funding comes from the annual subsidy allotted by the
Municipal Government of Narra. This, however, is inadequate to effectively discharge
powers and carry out government functions at the barangay level in accordance with
Section 17 of the Local Government Code. This also impedes the delivery to its citizens
of the necessary projects and services they deserve. Hence, it is imperative that Barangay
Panacan-2 be created as a regular barangay unit and be entitled to its regular share in the
TRA to guaranty the fulfillment of the government’s bounden duty to the residents living
therein.

In view of the foregoing, the immediate approval of this bill is earnestly requested.
