Concept of Local Legislation
 As a POWER
The Sanggunian’s
authority toenact
ordinances, approve
resolutions, or
appropriate funds
designed to deliver basic
services and facilities, and
to promote the general
welfare
 As a PROCESS
The Sanggunian’s
continuous interaction with
LGU’s executive branch,
constituents, civil society
and other actors of
governance, resulting in
policy actions that promote
the development of the
locality
Local Legislative Power
Since time immemorial, LGUs can legislate
on purely local matters
Local legislators are more knowledgeable
than Congress on matters of purely local
concern, and in better position to enact
appropriate legislation
LGUs’ lawmaking powers are not merely by
Congress’ good graces; they have been
vested by the Constitution itself
Where is Local Legislative Power Vested
Section 48 of the LGC states that legislative
power is vested in the Sanggunian as a
collegial, collective body
Legislation therefore requires the
participation of all its members by voting
upon every question put upon the body
The term “Sanggunian” suggests more than
just a law-making body
Presiding Officer
 Section 49: the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor shall be
the Sanggunian’s regular presiding officer
 Section 457: the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor is an
integral part in the composition of the council
 To preserve neutrality, the Vice Governor/ Vice
Mayor shall vote only to break a tie
 The Vice Governor/Vice Mayor is not a mere spare
tire or decorative position ; he/she is the head
administrator of the legislative assembly

Internal Rules of Procedure
 On the first regular session after the election
and within the 90 days, the Sanggunian must
adopt or update its house rules, providing for:
 Organization and election of Officers
 Creation of Committees
 Order and Calendar of Business
 The Legislative process
 Disciplinary sanctions on members for disorderly
behavior and unjustified absences
Duty to Disclose Conflict of Interest
 Every Sanggunian Member must fully
disclose any financial/ business/
professional/ personal interest with
any person or entity affected by an
ordinance under its consideration
 “Conflict of interest”- ethical
considerations suggesting that a public
official should be inhibited from
performing an official function because
of clash between public interest and
his/her private pecuniary interest
Regular and Special Sessions
13
Regular
Session Special
Session
 Held on designated day,
time and place
 No need for written notice
 Any agenda maybe
discussed
 Held at least once a week
Maybe called by LCE or
majority of members
 Held on day, time and
place specified in written
notice
 Only stated agenda may be
discussed
Quorum
 Majority of all members who have been
“elected and qualified” (not those were
voted upon)
 The term majority means “more than half”
 Jurisprudence tells us that the Vice
Governor/ Vice Mayor is included in the
computation of the quorum
When are Measures Deemed Approved
 Simple Ordinance:
majority of members present there being a quorum
 Ordinance authorizing payment of money or
creation of liability:
majority of all members
When are Measures Deemed Approved
 3 Modes of approving measures:
1. LCE signs all pages of enacted measure
2. LCE does not act on the measure within
10 days
3. LCE vetoes measure, but Sanggunian
overrides it by 2/3 vote of all members
Veto Power of the LCE
 Grounds for exercise of veto:
1. That the ordinance is “ultra vires”
2. That the ordinance is prejudicial to the
public welfare
 Must be in writing, specifying the grounds and
reasons for its exercise
 Punong Barangay has no veto power
 Sanggunian override cannot be further
overridden by the LCE

policy implementation
 Exercised through legislative authorization,
appropriations, investigations, and hearings
 An implied power that derives from the
legislature’s “power of the purse”
 An integral part of the constitutional system
of checks and balances
Legislative Oversight
 An implied rather than an enumerated
power under the Constitution of the LGC
 The law does not explicitly grant local
councils the authority to conduct inquiries or
investigations of the executive, to have
access to records or materials held by the
executive, or to issue subpoenas for
documents or testimony from the executive
Legislative Oversight
 Derives from the many express powers of
the Sanggunian: to appropriate funds, to
enact laws, and to concur to executive
appointments
 The legislature could not reasonably or
responsibly exercise these powers without
knowing what the executives are doing; how
programs are being administered; by whom,
and at what cost, and whether officials are
complying with legislative intent
Purposes of Oversight
Improve the efficiency, economy and
effectiveness of governmental operations
Evaluate programs and performance
Detect and prevent poor administration,
waste, abuse and arbitrary behavior
Inform the general public and ensure that
executive policies reflect the public interest
Purposes of Oversight
 Gather information to develop new
legislative proposals or to amend exiting
statutes
 Ensure administrative compliance with
legislative intent

  • 6. Concept of Local Legislation  As a POWER The Sanggunian’s authority toenact ordinances, approve resolutions, or appropriate funds designed to deliver basic services and facilities, and to promote the general welfare  As a PROCESS The Sanggunian’s continuous interaction with LGU’s executive branch, constituents, civil society and other actors of governance, resulting in policy actions that promote the development of the locality
  • 7. Local Legislative Power Since time immemorial, LGUs can legislate on purely local matters Local legislators are more knowledgeable than Congress on matters of purely local concern, and in better position to enact appropriate legislation LGUs’ lawmaking powers are not merely by Congress’ good graces; they have been vested by the Constitution itself
  • 8. Where is Local Legislative Power Vested Section 48 of the LGC states that legislative power is vested in the Sanggunian as a collegial, collective body Legislation therefore requires the participation of all its members by voting upon every question put upon the body The term “Sanggunian” suggests more than just a law-making body
  • 9. Presiding Officer  Section 49: the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor shall be the Sanggunian’s regular presiding officer  Section 457: the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor is an integral part in the composition of the council  To preserve neutrality, the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor shall vote only to break a tie  The Vice Governor/Vice Mayor is not a mere spare tire or decorative position ; he/she is the head administrator of the legislative assembly

  • 12. Duty to Disclose Conflict of Interest  Every Sanggunian Member must fully disclose any financial/ business/ professional/ personal interest with any person or entity affected by an ordinance under its consideration  “Conflict of interest”- ethical considerations suggesting that a public official should be inhibited from performing an official function because of clash between public interest and his/her private pecuniary interest
  • 13. Regular and Special Sessions 13 Regular Session Special Session  Held on designated day, time and place  No need for written notice  Any agenda maybe discussed  Held at least once a week Maybe called by LCE or majority of members  Held on day, time and place specified in written notice  Only stated agenda may be discussed
  • 14. Quorum  Majority of all members who have been “elected and qualified” (not those were voted upon)  The term majority means “more than half”  Jurisprudence tells us that the Vice Governor/ Vice Mayor is included in the computation of the quorum
  • 15. When are Measures Deemed Approved  Simple Ordinance: majority of members present there being a quorum  Ordinance authorizing payment of money or creation of liability: majority of all members
  • 16. When are Measures Deemed Approved  3 Modes of approving measures: 1. LCE signs all pages of enacted measure 2. LCE does not act on the measure within 10 days 3. LCE vetoes measure, but Sanggunian overrides it by 2/3 vote of all members
  • 17. Veto Power of the LCE  Grounds for exercise of veto: 1. That the ordinance is “ultra vires” 2. That the ordinance is prejudicial to the public welfare  Must be in writing, specifying the grounds and reasons for its exercise  Punong Barangay has no veto power  Sanggunian override cannot be further overridden by the LCE

  • 25. Legislative Oversight  Refers to the review and monitoring of executive agencies, programs, activities, and policy implementation  Exercised through legislative authorization, appropriations, investigations, and hearings  An implied power that derives from the legislature’s “power of the purse”  An integral part of the constitutional system of checks and balances
  • 26. Legislative Oversight  An implied rather than an enumerated power under the Constitution of the LGC  The law does not explicitly grant local councils the authority to conduct inquiries or investigations of the executive, to have access to records or materials held by the executive, or to issue subpoenas for documents or testimony from the executive
  • 27. Legislative Oversight  Derives from the many express powers of the Sanggunian: to appropriate funds, to enact laws, and to concur to executive appointments  The legislature could not reasonably or responsibly exercise these powers without knowing what the executives are doing; how programs are being administered; by whom, and at what cost, and whether officials are complying with legislative intent
  • 28.
