Proposed Amendments
As a result of the ninth and tenth meeting of the Ad Hoc Cabinet
Cluster for Security, here are the amendments agreed upon by the
Cluster, with exception to item (d):
a. The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) shall be
included in the membership of the National Peace and Order
Council (NPOC)
b. Other concerned agencies shall be invited to the meetings of the
POC as the need arises
c. The requirements for security clearances of private sector
representatives at the provincial, city and municipal levels shall
be deleted
d. The NAPOLCOM shall serve as the Secretariat of the NPOC
The proposed amendment that the NAPOLCOM shall serve as the
Secretariat of the NPOC was not included in the latest draft for the
following reasons:
The overall framework is Peace and Development, where
the DILG is the converging organization
The point of action is at the level of the Local Government
Units (LGUs) where the Secretariat positions are assigned
to the DILG proper offices
The DILG sub-regional offices are not within the
administrative supervision of the NAPOLCOM, whether
national or regional level
The arrangement where the NAPOLCOM was the NPOC
Secretariat has already been tried and it was not
successful mainly because of the organizational disconnect
and not in keeping with valued principles such as unity of
command, ease of vertical communication, policy
application and performance
