Recto EXPLANATORY NOTE The First District of Leyte coniprises the Municipalities of Alangalang, Babatngon, Palo, San Miguel, Sta. Fe, Tanaua, Tolosa and the City ofTacloban, the capital ofthe province and the acknowledged Regional Center of Region 8. The request for two additional branches is to address the growing demand for the immediate resolution of cases which presently clog the docklets and slow down the dispensation of justice in the area. The Leyteiios deserve expenditous resolutions of their legal problems. The density of cases being distributed among the five (5) courts is contributory to the slow disposition of cases and to the administration of justice in general. Hence, this bill seeks to create two (2) additional Regional Trial Court branches in the Eighth Judicial Region in Eastern Visayas, particularly in the City of Tacloban, Province of Leyte, in addition to the five (5) branches thereof in the First District ofthe aforementioned province. It is hoped that this proposal will greatly reduce the burden of the existing courts.

When super typhoon Yolanda came, help was difficult to get due to scattered LGU statistics. RATIONALE & OBJECTIVES With CBMS … An updated and complete database is now in place. Planning has a clearer direction. Ease in drafting all other LGU plans. Effective partnerships have sprouted creating and paving new opportunities for the municipality. HOW DID CBMS HELPED US? Now that we are done with data collection … The freshly collected CBMS data serves as basis in crafting the 2016 Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan. The CBMS data is also being used by the LGU in DRRM planning. It has also poured in significant information for the on-going updating of the CLUP. The mobile-based data collection allows a faster census considering the urgent need of the information results. The new CBMS technology provided job opportunity to the youth employed under the Government Internship Program (GIP) of DOLE.
