“Siguro pupunta na tayong dalawa doon kay kwan, sa Malacañang, kausapin natin si Pangulong Marcos na mag-appoint na ng permanent administrator para wala na maging excuse itong LWUA, ano?” said Dela Rosa to Padilla.
Dela Vega also explained that the agency had already written a letter to Marcos, appealing to him to appoint a full-time administrator for LWUA, to which the President has yet to respond. Padilla said that the LWUA’s board of trustees can appoint an administrator. However, only three out of five board of trustee members are seated, said Dela Vega. The remaining trustees are also supposed to be appointed by Marcos, she added.“Hindi ko po alam paano pa-function ang LWUA niyan. Paano po ba, kawawa naman po kayo ma’am,” Padilla said.
With these actions, Villar passed the LWUA’s budget at the committee level, saying that the senators will revisit the issues raised at the Senate plenary level.
