During the session that extended late Thursday into early Friday, key lawmakers addressed the resignation, emphasizing the need to update the official records promptly. Assistant Majority Leader and Sultan Kudarat 2nd District Rep. noted the procedural steps required to reflect the change accurately.
Resignation Process and Legislative Procedures
The four-word keyphrase “House Secretary General ordered” highlights the critical role of the Secretary General in maintaining accurate membership records. Community members observed that once a resignation is submitted and accepted, the Secretary General must act to update the roll without delay.
