NOW on ANC: Let's talk about the most pressing issues on #ANCHeadstart with @iamkarendavila.
@iamkarendavila TODAY on Hot Copy: Senator Panfilo "Ping" Lacson (@iampinglacson) #ANCHeadstart
@iamkarendavila @iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: We have yet to see the transmitted copy of the budget. Until we see that, we cannot really say if there is pork or not.
@iamkarendavila @iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: I don't see why a small committee will be making amendments to the budget. Cong. Eric Yap says the amendments will not come from congressmen but from agencies. This is still a violation though.
@iamkarendavila @iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: Agencies under the executive branch cannot be allowed to participate in the authorization phase of the budget process.
@iamkarendavila @iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: If the budget they will transmit to us will include institutional amendments made after the third & final reading, then with all due respect to my Senate president we cannot presume regularity.
#ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: Dumami ang local projects na multi-purpose buildings. These were added not under the budget but under the National Expenditure Program (NEP) submitted by the DPWH.
@iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson on publication of names of alleged 'terrorists' under the IRR of the Anti-Terror Law: I would like to think those who drafted the IRR had a good reason for this.
@iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: Designation of individuals or groups as terrorists is not automatic or absolute. May parameters yan. May parameters na susundan ang Anti-Terror Council.
@iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: That's just designation, not arrest.
@iampinglacson #ANCHeadstart @iampinglacson: Publication of names is to stop funding for terrorism. We already have a law against funding terrorism. This is not new.
