Sen. Richard J. Gordon sponsored a bill Wednesday that seeks to improve the confirmation of imperfect titles by simplifying the procedure and requirements in granting land deeds to help rural farmers and those who are unable to afford legal representation to secure land titles.
“Tulungan natin ang mga magsasaka at mahihirap na mabigyan ng titulo ang lupang kaakibat ng kanilang kabuhayan at pag-unlad para mayroon man lamang silang maipamana sa kanilang mga anak o maipautang sa mga bangko para makapagpalawak ng kanilang hanapbuhay at ito’y napakalaking tulong upang maiangat natin ang kalidad ng buhay nila,” Gordon stated after sponsoring Senate Bill 1931 in plenary session Wednesday.
“The first primary objective of this bill is to address the difficulties encountered in proving ownership since 1945 and the strict standards set by the Supreme Court in the judicial confirmation of imperfect titles. While the courts impose stringent requirements, it should be emphasized that the document certifying that the land is within alienable and disposable lands will not show the relative location of the land,” Gordon said.
Another objective of the bill is to remove the fixed term set on Dec. 31, 2020 for the filing of application of agricultural free patents as stated under Republic Act 9176.
