Transcript of Kapihan sa Senado

Posted on: 13 December 2012

I think the status is, as of yesterday evening, last na ‘yong akin naging individual amendments. I think Sen. Sotto is going to introduce more individual amendments on Monday but after that I think we will be getting to the vote on 2nd reading. Siguro hindi na namin iiwanan ‘yan hangang mag 2nd reading na sa Monday, which means that we if want to bring it to 3rd reading ,we will have to have a special session on Thursday.
