00:00 House Speaker Martin Romualdez said that they will strengthen the Senate's version of the Constitution

00:08 in its amendment to the Economic Provisions of the Constitution.

00:12 This is in the middle of the deliberation on the resolution of the House of Representatives

00:17 in the amendment of the Constitution.

00:19 This is the joint force of Tina Panganiban Perez and Ma'am Gonzales.

00:29 House Speaker Martin Romualdez opened the deliberation of the Committee of the Whole House

00:35 on the resolution of both Houses No. 7, the own version of the Camera,

00:39 in the amendment of the three economic provisions in the Constitution.

00:44 This is our unity, economy, not politics.

00:49 Now, to dispel doubts that the efforts of the House of Representatives

00:54 in pushing for the amendment of the Economic Provisions of the Constitution is politically motivating

01:00 or motivated, we are actually adopting all the three proposed amendments

01:06 of the Senate version of the resolution of both Houses No. 6 in total.

01:12 But the discussion on RBH 7 is not yet starting.

01:17 The answer to the procedure of questioning whether they are already doing a constituent assembly is already hot.

01:24 Is this a plenary? Are we converting it to a constituent assembly?

01:29 Because there are many topics in RBH.

01:32 If it is a simple bill, it is already in our rule, one topic, one bill.

01:38 You can say that we are a constituent assembly or a legislative body,

01:44 but in either case, we are acting on the basis of our constituent power to amend the Constitution.

01:53 Maybe we are just different in understanding a constituent assembly.

01:58 This Committee of the Whole can never be considered as a constituent assembly.

02:05 A constituent assembly is an assembly of senators and representatives.

02:13 Whether it is a constituent assembly, it is not.

02:16 This is a Committee of the Whole.

02:18 Although the Economic Charter Change was supported by several government offices and several groups,

02:23 it is not the only solution to the problems of the country.

02:27 Let me emphasize that we only reap the benefits I mentioned

02:33 if we also address the other problems involving high energy costs,

02:38 inadequate connectivity infrastructure, slow bureaucratic processes,

02:43 inconsistent local and national regulations, and highly concerning learning poverty and malnutrition.

02:50 Their ruling also stated something.

02:54 Economic chacha, we believe, is unnecessary, it distracts from real development, and is counterproductive.

03:01 Senators, President Bongbong Marcos was in Malacanang earlier.

03:06 Here, the President again stated that the President should be the senator in the discussion of the Charter Change.

03:12 He said, we'll allow the Senate to take the lead,

03:15 and I've asked the House leaders to wait for your output, and that they should just adapt.

03:22 The President also said that it is better to have the plebiscite for the Charter Change in the 2025 elections.

03:28 He said that he wants to have it in the memory of 2025.

03:33 So if that's the case, we don't need to rush.

03:36 The President instructed Senator Sonny Angara to study the legal steps

03:40 to include the plebiscite in the Commission on Elections or COMELEC,

03:44 or the question of whether the people favor or not in the change of the Constitution in the balota of the 2025 elections.

03:51 COMELEC said that they can have the plebiscite in the 2025 elections without additional expenses.

03:57 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Mav Gonzalez and Tina Panganiban Perez.

04:01 We have learned 24 hours.
