PingBills | Preventing Pork: Lacson Bill Encourages Public Participation in Budget Process

To keep greedy parties from inserting “pork” into the national budget, Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson has filed a bill institutionalizing the direct participation of taxpayers in the budget process.

Senate Bill 24, the “People’s Participation in the National Budget Process Act of 2019,” provides privileges and incentives for accredited groups that take part in the budgeting process.

“Now is the time for Congress to recognize the importance of the direct participation by people’s organizations and non-government organizations in the budget deliberation,” Lacson, an avowed enemy of the pork barrel system, said in his bill.

PingBills | BRAVE Bill ni Ping, Rektahan ang Pagbigay ng Pondo sa LGUs

Rektang pagkakaloob sa mga lokal na pamahalaan ang pondo para sa kanilang proyektong pampamayanan. Ito ang pangunahing nilalaman ng Senate Bill 23 o ang proposed Budget Reform for Village Empowerment (BRAVE) Act of 2019 na isinulong ni Senador Panfilo Lacson.

Ito ang nakikitang solusyon ng mambabatas upang matapos na ang mistulang pamamalimos ng mga pinuno ng LGU mula sa mga malalayong lalawigan at bayan sa mga tanggapan ng mga senador at kongresista, at maging sa mga sangay ng pamahalaan, para lamang maambunan ng pondo ang kanilang mga proyekto.

PingBills | Ping: Mga Sangkot sa Droga, Money Launderers, Nagbabalak Mag-Kudeta, I-Wiretap Na!

wiretap bill sb22

Maaari nang i-wiretap ang komunikasyon ng mga sangkot sa krimen tulad ng droga at money laundering, at sa mga nagnanais patalsikin ang pamahalaan.

Ito ang pangunahing hangad ng muling pagsasampa ni Senador Panfilo Lacson ng panukalang Anti-Wiretapping Law.

Sa pagsasampa ng Senate Bill 22 na naglalayong amyendahan ang 54-taon nang Republic Act 4200, ipinunto ni Lacson na kailangan nang mas palawakin ang kapangyarihan ng mga alagad ng batas sa pagmanman laban sa mga kriminal.

PingBills | Lacson Bill Updates, Expands Anti-Wiretapping Law

A bill filed by Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson will give law enforcers more teeth against dangerous crimes like drugs, money-laundering and coups, by allowing wiretaps against those involved in such cases.

Senate Bill 22, which seeks to amend and update the 54-year-old Republic Act 4200, also contains provisions protecting people’s right to privacy.

“With the following exceptions, wiretapping, though limited in its applications, has been an effective tool by our law enforcement agencies against criminal elements who have wreaked havoc, instability and lack of equanimity in our country to the detriment of many of our peace-loving citizens. Unfortunately, there are still certain crimes that are not covered under the said exceptional cases, which put not only the lives and property of our people in paramount danger, but also pose a grave threat to our nation’s security. The peace-and-order situation in the country gives testament to this fact and thus, it is imperative for us to revisit RA 4200 in order to further enhance its effectiveness,” he said.
