Introduced by Honorable Allen Jesse C. Mangaoang

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill is a refiled bill which has reached the Senate in the 15" and 16" Congress. It
was not enacted into law however due to events prevailing during those periods. It seeks to
separate Ipil from its mother barangay, Bulanao, of the City of Tabuk, Province of Kalinga, to
create a new barangay to be known as Barangay Ipil.

Ipil is already a regular barangay, having been created locally under Provincial
Ordinance 2002-02 as amended by Provincial Ordinance No. 2003-013 which was ratified on
December 22, 2002. Its corporate existence begun on January 20, 2003 when its first set of
regular officials were elected, pursuant Section 14 of the Local Government Code of 1991.

The proposed barangay to be created under this bill shall compose of the following:
Ipil, Mapaoay, Maledda, Matocnang, Sumadel and Dananao.

In view of the fact that barangay Ipil was locally created it could not be shared of the
usual Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) from the national government. The Provincial
Government only shares a measly amount which is not enough to finance the delivery of basic
services, much less provide the funds for infrastructure projects much needed by its residents.
The conversion of Tabuk into a component city will definitely attract more population into
this barangay; hence a great need for more funding to address its growing problems.

ill no longer be

With this bill, it is highly expected that the new barangay of Ipil
encumbered by lack of funds, thereby enabling them to chart their own course for socio-

economic development.

In view of the foregoing, the passage of the bill is earnestly sought.
