Still for Refinement
However, House justice committee chair and Oriental Mindoro Rep. Reynaldo Umali said the list could still be modified especially once it reaches the plenary.
“We will further refine this except that we are looking at the plenary for a more lively debate on the matter para mas marami pong nagpa-participate, marami pong nakakarinig. At ito naman ay hindi rin po naman matatapos sa [as there will be many who will participate and listen. And because this bill won’t end with just the] House of Representatives,” he told GMA News.
Umali added that the House bill will still have to jive with the Senate’s own version, if they ever push through the third and final reading.
“I’m almost certain that whatever we have approved at the committee level, will still be further refined to reflect what really are the compelling reasons for imposing death penalty on heinous crimes,” he said.
