SC spokesman, lawyer Brian Keith Hosaka, confirmed the petition of four transport groups—Kilusan sa Pagbabago ng Industriya ng Transportasyon Inc., Pangkalahatang Sangguniang Manila and Suburbs Drivers Association Nationwide, Alliance of Transport Operators and Drivers Association of the Philippines, and Alliance of Concerned Transport Organization—was tackled by the magistrates during their regular en banc session on Tuesday.
The petitioners are questioning the legality of the implementation of NCAP, saying it has no basis under Republic Act 7924 that serves as the enabling charter of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority and the RA 4136, which created the Land Transportation Office . The petitioners, however, argued that the MMDA, which is composed of the 17 Metro Manila mayors, has no legal authority to come up with a resolution adopting the implementation of NCAP.
