THE Lower House is not likely to meet its June 11 deadline to pass the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) with only a total of five representatives finishing their interpellation this week out of at least 33 who signed up.

Cagayan de Oro Rep. Rufus Rodriguez, chair of the Ad Hoc Committee on the Bangsamoro Basic Law, admitted that lack of quorum is affecting their June 11 target to pass House Bill 5811 or the “Basic Law of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region”––but won’t go for the Senate’s new October deadline.

“This should be finished… by June 11. Kasi we’re ready naman to defend it,” Rodriguez said. -CAROLYN ARGUILLAS OF MINDANEWS
