Davao City Local Development Plan for Children
April 11th, 2008 at 12:56 am (Health, Davao City)
Last Tuesday, I attended the regular session of the Davao City Council. The gallery was full of pro-life advocates anticipating the passage of the Local Development Plan for Children (LDPC). During the privilege hour, Councilor Teresita Mata-Marañon spoke of her reasons for opposing the plan. The pro-life advocates were happy.
Then, LDPC’s main proponent Councilor Angela Librado-Trinidad spoke in defense of the LDPC. She further explained that Mayor Rodrigo Duterte has asked that the third and final reading and voting on LDPC be deferred. And it was.
The main point of contention for the ordinance are the legislation on the promotion of reproductive health and family planning.
This Tuesday, the third and final reading followed by the voting will finally determine if the LDPC will be passed or not.
Here are some relevant materials on the LDPC:
