The Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) on Saturday announced that it has postponed its October 22 hearing at the request of former House speaker and Leyte 1st District Rep. Martin Romualdez.
The ICI explained that Romualdez “requested to postpone the hearing…as he is scheduled to undergo a medical procedure.”
“The Commission will issue an advisory once a date for the next hearing has been determined,” the ICI said.
Romualdez first appeared before the commission on October 14, when he testified and personally submitted an affidavit concerning his role in the budget process of the House of Representatives.
The ICI stated that Romualdez’s initial testimony “has somewhat clarified his role and the actions of his colleagues in the budget preparation.”
