DIPOLOG
CITY - The people of Zamboanga del Norte got their money’s worth
as members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial board) they had elected are
religiously performing their roles as expected, declared Vice Governor Senen O.
Angeles in last Sunday’s Kapihan sa Dipolog radio program at Camila Hotel I
here.
Angeles
said “since our assumption to office on June 30, 2013, the board members have actively
participated in the discussion of various resolutions and ordinances submitted
for deliberation and review by the different city/municipal councils.”
“No
board member has missed the sessions without valid reason. No one was reported
late during sessions and there was no grandstanding during deliberations,”
Angeles pointed out.
In
her report, Assistant SP Secretary Filmie V. Beluan disclosed that the
provincial board has crafted/passed 615 resolutions, 11 Appropriation
Ordinances and 2 provincial ordinances in 2014.
The
two ordinances crafted by the provincial -oard pertain to the setting of the
prices for the agricultural products in the province and services extended by
the Provincial Agriculture and Veterinary Office, as well as the amendment of
the small-scale mining ordinance.
