REMARKS : On Jan. 22, 2007, Rep. Remulla (J.C.) motioned for the reconsideration of the approval of HB00345 on Third Reading. However, the Body deferred action on said motion. On Jan. 24, 2007, Rep. Magtubo noted that since three days had already passed but still the Body had not acted upon the motion of Rep. Remulla (J.C.), he then moved that said motion be deemed abandoned. No action was taken due to lack of quorum.
