Sandro Marcos, Paolo Duterte to attend ICI hearing
Five lawmakers, including Ilocos Norte Rep. Sandro Marcos and Davao City Rep. Pulong Duterte, are set to appear as resource persons in the Independent Commission on Infrastructure (ICI) hearings this week.
The hearings, scheduled from December 2 to 5, will focus on the flood control controversy.
Other invited congressmen include Reps. Benjamin Agarao Jr., Danilo Domingo, and Eric Yap, along with officials from the Land Bank of the Philippines.
Unlike other lawmakers, Reps. Marcos and Duterte did not request for an executive session, and their appearances will likely be livestreamed.
The ICI plans to livestream its proceedings and is awaiting a resource person's consent for their testimony to be broadcast.
