One of the bill's provisions allotted a ₱10,000 daily allowance to each of the constitutional convention's delegates for every day of attendance.
– A House panel has approved a bill which details the creation of a constitutional convention to pursue charter change.
Funding for the elections of the 253 delegates would be taken from “any available appropriations of the Comelec [Commission on Elections] in the Fiscal Years 2022 and 2023 General Appropriations Act [GAA]," the bill reads. The two Congressional leaders could appoint additional representatives from other sectors they determine as necessary.
For the length of its duration, the convention will then meet at the House’ Session Hall every morning at 10 a.m.
