MEDIA ADVISORY:
ILIGAN CITY LONE DISTRICT REP. FREDERICK SIAO TO DELIVER PRIVILEGE SPEECH ON JAN. 15, 2018
Iligan City Lone District Representative Frederick W. Siao is scheduled to deliver a PRIVILEGE SPEECH to hold the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) accountable for the extreme delay in the release of allowances to thousands of college faculty scholars who availed of the K to 12 Transition Program graduate education scholarships.
The speech will be delivered during the regular session of the House of Representatives at the House Session Hall, Batasan Hills, Quezon City. The session will start at 4PM.
The privilege speech follows the filing on Monday morning of January 15, 2018 of a proposed resolution calling for an investigation, in aid of legislation, into the delayed allowances for the K to 12 Transition Program beneficiaries, who are now mired in debts and poverty (see attached draft resolution).
Some of the faculty scholars who have not received their allowances will be in the audience gallery to hear Rep. Siao deliver his privilege speech.
The faculty scholars have informed Rep. Siao that they are willing and available to be interviewed by the news media after he delivers his speech. (END)
