The Department of Justice declared that the law on government assistance to students and teachers in private schools enacted in 1989 remains enforceable.
“After a careful review of RA No. 6728 and RA No. 8545, we opine that the latter did not repeal the former,” Vasquez said. “In our view, it is clear that RA No. 8545 explicitly repealed Presidential Decree Nos. 932 and 1371 only. We echo the Supreme Court’s pronouncement in a long line of cases that when the law is clear and free from any doubt or ambiguity, it must be given its literal meaning or applied according to its express terms, without any attempted interpretation,” he said.
