A provisional authority by the National Telecommunications Commission allowing ABS-CBN to operate past its franchise expiration may face legal questions, Senator Panfilo Lacson warned on Thursday. | MAgerINQ

Various resolutions have also been filed in the Senate and the House extending the franchise until December 31, 2022. Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr.’s bill, meanwhile, seeks to extend the franchise only until December 31 this year.

“Kasi klaro naman sa batas. Ang legislation nasa amin e, wala sa NTC. NTC is a regulatory body. Sila ‘yung mag i-implement,” he pointed out. “How do you extend without issuing a provisional permit? The legislative franchise expires on May 4. So maski 1,000 joint resolutions na walang effect and force of law ang ipadala namin sa NTC, anong gagawin ng NTC after May 4? Expired pa rin ‘yan,” he added.

SC is final arbiter in ABS-CBN franchise issue – LacsonThere is no changing the reality that the Supreme Court (SC) will decide if violations of the franchise law were committed and if Congress has the power to grant or deny the franchise. Now that the Senate has concluded its own investigation, dapat hinto ang komentaryo at salita na ng mga myembro ng Senado at pabayaan na ang Mababang Kongreso at Korte Suprema na magpasiya tungkol sa Prankisa ng ABS-CBN!
