The ad interim appointment of Hans Leo Cacdac as secretary of the Department of Migrant Workers is now considered bypassed as Congress adjourned sessions sine die.This was confirmed by Senate President Francis Escudero, who is also the chairperson of the Commission on Appointments—the body composed of members of the Senate and the House of Representatives that is mandated to screen presidential appointees.
On Tuesday, the CA committee on migrant workers deferred the deliberations on Cacdac's appointment due to a "lack of material time" to discuss concerns about his nomination.During the hearing, several lawmakers expressed support for Cacdac, but two people appeared before the CA panel to express their opposition.
