Apply now for gun ban exemption
By J.Lo
“In some cases, approval of application for exemption is delayed because documents are incomplete…if it is complete, we could promise applicants that their applications will be approved in one week,” Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman George Garcia said those seeking to apply for exemption to poll gun ban are reminded to complete their requirements before submitting their applications to Comelec
Garcia assured applicants they could obtain exemption in just a week, if they submit complete requirements.
Application for gun ban exemption begins today.
Garcia said those who apply for exemption could also use online payment system.
Starting Jan. 12, 2025, Comelec will enforce gun ban in connection with midterm elections in May.
Tomorrow, Garcia said Comelec would hold first convention for election officers, provincial election supervisors and regional election directors. Convention aims to teach poll officials on use of new automated counting machines and other matters concerning automated election.
Meanwhile, poll workers need to be compensated with P15,000 and given enough protection during 2025 midterm elections due to enduring climate of political violence during polls, Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) said over the weekend.
As both chambers of Congress continue to deliberate on 2025 proposed national budget, ACT said government needs to push for higher poll service honoraria, allowances and enhanced protection for poll workers most of whom are public school teachers.
