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, approval of this bill is eamestly sought.
