The public hearing scheduled by the Senate public services committee even without a House of Representatives committee report on the proposed renewal of the ABS-CBN franchise is constitutional and legal, Sen. Francis Pangilinan said.

The opposition senator, a lawyer, advanced this legal opinion to rebut statements that the Senate would be violating a constitutional provision that money and franchise bills should emanate from the Lower House before they are acted upon by the Upper House.

“Saan ba ang venue ng franchise? Di ba sa Kongreso? Sa Senado at sa House of Representatives? Dapat silang bigyan ng venue dahil kami ang maga-apruba ng kanilang prangkisa,” Pangilinan said.“Huwag kayong maniwala dyan kay [House Speaker Alan] Cayetano. Sa sampung sinabi niyan, labing-isa ang kasinungalingan… kasi gusto nyang i-monopolize ang hearings.”
