Hse backs in-person sessions
By Nidz Godino
"Virtual,hybrid mode will be used on case-by-case basis and upon approval of the Speaker," House secretary-general Reginald Velasco said lower chamber of Congress resumes face-to-face plenary sessions after three years, following President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s lifting of COVID state of public health emergency on July 21,2023.
Three hundred twelve(312)-member House of Representatives, led by Speaker Martin Romualdez, will begin face-to-face committee hearings, meetings and conferences today July 31,2023.
Sub -panel tasked with formulating rules on conduct of hearings and sessions had endorsed mixed setup of face-to-face and online Zoom app attendance, House Minority Leader Marcelino Libanan told reporters.
"It was recommended by sub-committee level, and it has yet to be approved by House committee on rules, and at same time get final approval of plenary, we are still in hybrid mode because we have seen its necessity and at the same time its advantage... we still have surge in COVID-19 cases, that's why we are still in this hybrid session" Libanan said.
Progressive Makabayan bloc, through Rep. France Castro, filed House resolution in March to force lower chamber to return to full face-to-face plenary sessions instead of hybrid system implemented since 2020.
"It is unfortunate and ironic while country has mandated all school-age children from youngest kindergarten pupil to oldest college student, and all workers and employees in public and private offices and workplaces to return to pre-pandemic face-to-face reporting, this is not so with House members," Castro said.
