Gov't expects LGUS to help enforce ECQ protocols in subdivisions, condominiums
The national government expects local government units (LGUs) to take charge of enforcing enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) protocols within subdivisions and residential condominiums.
Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles stated that LGUs are responsible for implementing the directives from the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) to curb the spread of COVID-19.
The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) will monitor the LGUs' compliance with these quarantine regulations.
Secretary Eduardo Año reminded condominium owners that they cannot establish their own rules during the state of public health emergency and calamity.
Año mentioned that Taguig City police had already responded to a complaint from the city government regarding quarantine violations in a common condominium area.
