At the conclusion of the hearings conducted by Committee on Justice on the controversies, panel chairman and Leyte Rep. Vicente Veloso said Bantag’s claim that the NBP owns the 3.1 hectare land where the national prison compound is located remains “a dream.”
Bukidnon 2nd District Rep. Jonathan Keith Flores, committee vice chairman, pointed out during the hearing that the property which was sealed off on orders of Bantag remains to be owned by the national government as indicated by the original titles presented by the Register of Deeds of Muntinlupa.
A reliable committee source said the House panel will discuss whether or not to recommend the filing of administrative and criminal charges against Bantag. ....

Bantag’s line of reasoning stunned members of the House Committee on Justice during a recent inquiry into the NBP decisions to demolish a colony of informal settlers within its over 300 hectare property in Muntinlupa and the sealing off of a national road also within its jurisdiction.
Grilled by justice panel members over the controversial wall construction that cut access to Insular Prison Road, Bantag insisted that the law gives BuCor the authority to do what it takes to secure the NBP compound. ....

In the joint resolution, the lawmakers also called for the rejection of the Minimum Access Volume (MAG) of pork imports from 54,000 metric tons to 404,000 MTs or an equivalent of 749 percent increase in the current quota.
“Tariff reduction and increased MAV of pork imports will further decimate the local pork industry as we know it and will also undermine our local production and food security, as what has happened to the rice industry,” they said.
The joint resolution was filed by Representatives Carlos Zarate, Rose Marie Arenas, Jose Christopher Belmonte, Arlene Brosas, Argel Joseph Cabatbat, France Castro, Eufemia Cullamat, Lorenz Defensor, Sarah Jane Elago, Edgar Erice, Ferdinand Gaite, Janette Garin, Rico Gerona, Jonathan Keith Flores, Edcel Lagman, Geraldine Roman, and Noel Villanueva. ....
