THE Senate of the Philippines approved on third and final reading a measure seeking to reschedule the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections from December 2022 to December 2023.

"The fact that the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections have been postponed relentlessly through decades merely underlies the unfinished business of deeper issues plaguing both the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan systems," Marcos said in her sponsorship speech. The bill also ordered the Commission on Audit to submit before Congress an audit report on the budget used for the postponed December 5, 2022 BSKE within 90 days from its effectivity.
