The Department of Science and Technology on Thursday raised suggestions to help address the country's long-standing problem of flooding in times of heavy rains.During the House committee on appropriations' deliberations on DOST 's proposed P28.77-billion budget for next year, Secretary Renato Solidum Jr. underscored the need to have water retaining structures or series of dams in Metro Manila and other areas where rainwater can be stored temporarily.
If enacted into law, the National Land Use Act will provide a framework on proper utilization and management of land resources in the country.The proposed law also seeks to create the National Land Use Commission under the Office of the President, the highest policy-making body that would handle the management and planning of land use, and resolve land use policy conflicts.
