WHAT RULE?
WHAT RULE?—The deliberation on the P15.9 million supplemental budget during the special session last Friday became heated Dagupan City when Councilor Redford Erfe-Mejia (standing on the left podium) tried to block the passage by invoking a rule on voting that Councilor Jeslito Seen (standing on right podium) pointed out to be non-existent in the council’s internal rules. The proposal endorsed by Seen’s finance committee was eventually approved by the Sangguniang Panlungsod. Two minority councilors joined the majority in passing the measure at a vote of seven affirmative, 1 (Erfe-Mejia) against, and one abstention. (Photo by Mitz Cresencio)
