FOLLOWING A series of public consultations, the proposed Bangsamoro Electoral Code is now up for committee deliberations.
The Committee on Rules, chaired by Atty. Sha Elijah
Dumama-Alba, started discussions on BTA Bill No. 29 with a briefing on the
consolidated matrix of position papers.
The committee held 12 public consultations in Manila, Cotabato City, Maguindanao del Norte, Maguindanao del Sur, Lanao del Sur, Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi, and the BARMM Special Geographic Area.
They received position papers from national offices,
local government unit officials, civil society organizations, election
watchdogs, academe, religious sector representatives, indigenous people, women,
youth groups, and other stakeholders.
Atty. Dumama-Alba said that the consolidated positions
will be carefully reviewed by the committee before submitting it to the plenary
in February.
The proposed electoral code will outline the structural,
functional, and procedural principles governing the election of officers in the
Bangsamoro region (LTAIS-Public Information, Publication, and Media Relations
