consistent with the numbering of the legislative districts to ensure better service 
deiivery and avoid confusion among stakeholders.
The bill seeks to renumber all the DEOs In the Province of Cebu to correspond 
with the numbering of the legislative districts to guarantee a more effective and 
accurate delivery of Infrastructure projects in the province.
In view of the foregoing, approval of this measure is earnestly sought.
