00:00Senator Risa Conteveros filed a substitute bill, which is called Prevention of Adolescent Pregnancy.
00:07This is in accordance with the law of the seven senators who were the first to sign and support the committee report.
00:13They also need additional dialogue with the stakeholders.
00:18We have first news from Mackie Polido.
00:20The seven senators suddenly returned their signatures to the committee report in Senate Bill 1979, or an Act Providing for a National Policy in Preventing Adolescent Pregnancies.
00:35This is in accordance with the statements of President Bongbong Marcos against the Senate, which he will veto if passed in the current Congress.
00:43You will teach four-year-olds how to masturbate.
00:48It is a travesty of what sexual and sex education should be to the children.
00:54Among those who returned their signatures were Senators J.V. Ejercito, Nancy Binay, Cynthia Villar, and Bong Go, who wrote to Senate President Chief Escudero.
01:04They believe that adolescent pregnancy is an important issue, but additional dialogue needs to be had with the stakeholders.
01:11Senators Bong Revilla, Jingoy Estrada, and Loren Legarda followed suit.
01:16Before the withdrawal, 18 senators signed the committee report.
01:21He has not yet gone to the President. He already has a pronouncement that he will veto.
01:25So why would we produce a committee report when we already know that the President will veto it?
01:32I do not agree with any prophecy that will damage the value of the family and the dignity of the faith of our countrymen.
01:42Yesterday, Senator Risa Ontiveros, author of Senate Bill 1979, ate a manifesto in Plenary.
01:48She said that the discussion was disturbed by the spread of misinformation.
01:52They said that the 0-4 years old masturbation is in the bill.
01:58Anal sex, oral sex, and all kinds of concepts that are not suitable for children.
02:05The people are afraid.
02:08But I will repeat, none of this is in the bill.
02:13And no matter when, this will not be included in any proposal that I will propose.
02:20In the middle of this, she will ask for an amendment by substitution to answer the concerns of some senators.
02:27We have already removed the phrase,
02:31guided by international standards,
02:34because of the concerns of some.
02:38We have already limited the CSE to adolescents, or those 10 years old and above.
02:45According to Senate President Cheese Escudero,
02:48because Ms. Ontiveros will amend the bill,
02:51she will study whether this will be returned to the committee or will be debated in the Senate Plenary.
02:56Here is the first news, Macky Pulido for GMA Integrated News.
