Ilocos Norte Rep. Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” Marcos welcomed the steady progress of key Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) measures in the House.
He cited the recent committee-level approvals of the Presidential Merit Scholarship Program and the proposed National Land Use Act as proof that priority bills are moving forward.
The scholarship measure seeks to institutionalize merit-based support for top senior high school graduates under the Commission on Higher Education.
The proposed National Land Use Act aims to establish a national framework for rational and sustainable land allocation and management.
Marcos said both measures have cleared their main committees and were approved by the Committee on Appropriations, paving the way for plenary deliberations.
