MANILA – Malacañang withdrew Monday the “take-over” provisions in separate bills seeking to address the crisis brought about by the coronavirus disease .
“We are requesting it this early because we do not know how quickly our Congress can convene if and when we reach that point. Thus, for the benefit of our people, we opted to include it in our requested authorities,” he explained. While the management of these businesses will remain with the owners, the President or his representative, would have been authorized to direct and supervise their operations, providing for a reasonable compensation for additional damage or costs incurred by the owner.
Both the Senate and House versions no longer contain the phrase “temporarily take over or direct the operation of any privately-owned public utility or business affected with public interest.” In the House version, House Bill 6616 or the “Bayanihan Act of 2020,” carries similar provision on directing the operations of hospitals, medicals and health facilities and public transportation but includes hotels as among those whose operations the President can direct.
“No bill number, no author, that’s a piece of paper, tapos Headline? Wow,” he told Senate reporters in a message.

If they take over my place of work, i will be on indefinite leave.
