OPS and PCAD-ODD CONDUCTS BENCHMARKING ACTIVITY AT THE SENATE OF THE PHILIPPINES
The Plenary and Committee Affairs Department (PCAD-ODD) along with the Manila Liaison Office (MLO), and the Legislative Affairs Unit (LAU-OPS) of the Bangsamoro Transition Authority Parliament conducted a benchmarking activity at the Senate of the Philippines, focusing on the operations of the Bills and Index Service and the Senate’s practices in managing legislative information and records.
The delegation engaged with the Senate Bills and Index Service for a technical exchange on the Legislative Information System (LIS) and digital initiatives, including the e-Congress platform. The participants also visited the Senate Archives Service to learn about the preservation and management of legislative records and historical documents.
The activity aimed to identify relevant practices that may contribute to the continuing improvement of legislative information management within the Bangsamoro Parliament.
MLO remains committed to supporting the Parliament’s organic offices by facilitating linkages with relevant national government agencies and institutions in support of their legislative work.
