Drilon corrects Duterte mouthpiece: No need for Congress to pass a law to exempt Hidilyn Diaz s Olympic winnings from income tax
Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon, former justice secretary, said that Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque s claim is erroneous that a law is needed to exempt Olympic Gold Medalist Hidilyn Diaz s winnings from income tax payment. Olympic-related prizes, awards and incentives given to Olympic Gold Medalist Hidilyn Diaz should be tax exempt. There is no need for Congress to pass a law to do that. Roque s statement is erroneous, if not malicious, Drilon said on Friday. The Congress, through RA 10699 which was passed during the Aquino administration, already exempted all prizes and awards granted to athletes from the payment of income tax. It is erroneous interpretations such as of Roque s that create the confusion, Drilon said.

Drilon: State may impose movement restrictions on unvaccinated individuals
Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon said that the government may impose restrictions for unvaccinated Filipinos to contain the further spread of the COVID-19 virus and promote the general welfare and public health.
President Duterte recently said that he cannot wait for a law to punish unvaccinated Filipinos and he wants police and barangay captains to restrict the movement of people who do not want to get vaccinated against COVID-19 virus. It is well within the power of the State to restrict the movement of unvaccinated individuals. However, a law must be passed if the government wants to punish, arrest or jail those unvaccinated from going out, Drilon said on Friday.
