EXPLANATORY NOTE 
This is a re-filed version of House Bill (H.B.) No. 4775 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.  
This bill seeks to invoke the 1987 Constitution and RA 7160 by allowing 
Barangay Central Signal Village to be entitled to a just share from the national taxes. 
Barangay Central Signal Village, 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 
Seven Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Four Hundred square meters (775,400 sq.m.),  
more or less, and a population of Forty Four Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Six 
(44,126).  It is bounded on the North by Sampaloc  Street  and  M.R.T. Avenue 
(formerly Cuasay Street); on the East by NAPOCOR High Tension Power Line; on 
the South by Governor Rodriguez Avenue, Luzon Avenue, Espino Street, Callejon 
Balleser Street and Calle Cabasaan; on the Northwest by Veterans Compound; and on 
the Southwest by F.T.I. Compound. 
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 
Village and created as a separate barangay by the City Government ofTaguig, acting 
through the Sangguniang Panlungsod, under City Ordinance No. 61-2008 approved on 
September 22, 2008. Its corporate existence began on October 25, 2010, 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.
