Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez on Saturday assured barangay officials in the country that the House of Representatives is working for the passage of a Magna Carta for Barangays.

The leader of the 308-strong lower chamber on August 13 bared before the Liga ng mga Barangay during their National Congress of his advocacy to have them covered by SSS at no cost to them so they could be protected with life insurance and enjoy lifetime pension upon retirement.

Similarly, he told village officials that he filed a proposal in the House of Representatives to give them a fixed term of office of six years to insulate them from electoral concerns and allow them to focus on their responsibilities to their constituents.

“With this proposal, our goal is to make the benefits and support we provide to barangay officials comprehensive,” Romualdez said in Filipino.

“I hope that you will be our partner in the crafting of this law. I encourage all of you to pass position papers and keep our lines open to ensure that your requests are included in this proposal,” he added.
