Representative Raoul Manuel wants to question President Marcos' move to certify as urgent the spending plan, when there was supposedly no public calamity or emergency that warranted the move
The nominal voting proceeded, and when it was Manuel’s time to cast his vote, he again went to the podium to decry the treatment given him.
“I move to strike out that unparliamentary statement of Congressman Raoul,” Abang Lingkod Representative Stephen Paduano interjected. “The basis to say the 2024 budget is urgent is weak. Will the budget be used immediately even if we pass it here [now]?” he asked.Albay 1st District Representative Edcel Lagman said he sympathizes with Manuel’s position, which questioned the President’s move, although he noted that the Supreme Court already ruled that the reason for the certification by the President is his sole discretion.
