HOUSE BILL NO. __

Introduced by Hon. Josephine Y. Ramirez Sato

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Barangay Naibuan was formally created under Provincial Ordinance No. 33 Series of
2009 of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Occidental Mindoro. Its corporate existence
came about on January 5, 2018 after a unanimous approval of its electors in a
plebiscite conducted by the Commission on Elections.

Fifteen (15) sitios compose Barangay Naibuan. Namely, the Sitios of Naibuan,
Lagnas, Ibanag, Hobkob, Abong, Malumak, Kianay, Libertad, Lowaliw, Ilya, Yabat,
Salidang, Upper Kaywan, Dayaga and Timbangan.

Although locally created, the Barangay have yet to receive its regular share from
Internal Revenue Allotment enjoyed by other barangays. The Municipal Government
of San Jose assisted Barangay Naibuan with its initial expenses as well as providing
assistance for the new barangay's operational expenses. Clearly, the financial
assistance received by the barangay from the Municipal Government does not suffice
to finance its regular expenses, most important of which is the delivery of basic
services. Furthermore, the barangay cannot yet provide funds for development and
infrastructure projects much needed by its residents.


Through the enactment of this bill, the people of Barangay Naibuan can avail of the
Internal Revenue Allotment pursuant to Section 285 of Republic Act 7160 or the Local
Government Code of 1991. The barangay will be supported with much needed
resources that will propel genuine autonomy, community growth and development.

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