MANILA, Philippines — On the prodding of Senate President Vicente Sotto III, the Senate committee on public services will look next week into the water shortage that is now affecting parts of Metro Manila and Rizal province.
Sotto on Wednesday told INQUIRER.net that Senator Grace Poe, chairperson of the committee, will conduct the hearing on the water shortage on Tuesday.
“I already called Grace and asked her to call for a hearing asap (as soon as possible). Tuesday daw,” Sotto said in a text message.
He also said he himself would file a resolution hopefully within the day, directing the said committee to conduct the probe.
“Yes, try ko today,” Sotto said when asked if he would file a resolution calling for a probe. /muf
