SENATORS are determined to complete amendatory legislation on a nine-month-old law professionalizing the military amid recent reports of unrest within the ranks of uniformed personnel.
The committee also tackled SBN 1608, or the Free Legal Assistance to Any Officer or Enlisted Personnel of the AFP and the Philippine National Police and SB Nos. 1100 and 1113 seeking to establish the Philippine Air Force Academy . “Just a reminder to all of us, especially all those in uniform that because of this hearing initiated by the good chairman , what we are experiencing is a reminder that the law is not etched in stone, it is evolving, it is in a state of process that should meet the demands and needs of the current period and this is what this hearing is all about.
Galvez said the proposed amendments would address the gaps and “unintended consequences” of the law’s implementation. For his part, Sen. Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go assured he supports the proposals to amend RA 11709 and setting up the PAFA.
