MANILA — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has asked Senate and House leaders to suspend the implementation of the Real Property Valuation and Assessment Reform Act to provide temporary relief to the expenditures of businesses and private property owners, Malacañang said on Thursday following the 4th Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) meeting.
“Binigyang-diin sa pagpupulong ang pagtutulungan ng Ehekutibo at Lehislatura sa pagsusulong ng mga repormang magpapalakas sa ekonomiya, magpapahusay sa pamamahala, at magbibigay ng mas maraming oportunidad sa mga Pilipino,” the Palace said in a statement.

“Kabilang dito ang pagsasagawa ng pag-aaral sa pagpapatupad ng Real Property Valuation and Assessment Reform Act (Republic Act No. 12001), kabilang ang posibleng pag-amyenda rito, upang maiwasan ang dagdag na pasanin sa mga may-ari ng ari-arian at mga negosyo, mahikayat ang mas maraming pamumuhunan, at matiyak ang maayos at makatwirang transisyon sa bagong valuation system,” the statement read.
The Palace has yet to release full details of the meeting, but the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) earlier said that Marcos Jr. and congressional leaders are expected to discuss 24 bills listed in the administration’s common legislative agenda.
