“In fact, we are just waiting for the final approval of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. (as to the postponement of the elections),” Lacson said.
He said that the postponement of the BSKE was one of the main agenda of the LPP’s General Assembly on October 1, 2022.
The Bicameral Conference Committee earlier agreed to defer the barangay and SK polls from December 5, 2022 to the last Monday of October 2023, which falls on the 30th.
The Bicam’s version of the bill only awaits the signature of the President to become a law.*
