Lakas: Bid to dissolve House body linked to SCTex scam
By Gerry Baldo 07/25/2010 Stalwarts of the Lakas-Kampi-CMD in the House of Representatives smell something fishy in the insistence of the ruling Liberal Party (LP) to abolish the House oversight committee. Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman said something must be cooking at the ruling party. “They might be planning to hide something (in abolishing the House body),” Lagman told reporters covering the Lakas-Kampi-CMD caucus in Clark Field, Pampanga. Lagman said they could not understand why such an important panel would be abolished amid claims by the LP that transparency would be one of the hallmarks of the Aquino administration. “That was the decision...to abolish,” he said. Lawyer Raul Lambino, who was designated as the Lakas-Kampi-CMD spokesman, shared Lagman’s views. He said the abolition must have something to do with the panel’s investigation into the issue of the SCTex access road to Hacienda Luisita.
