Lawmaker bats for 'independent' PNPA

HOUSE Minority Leader and 4Ps party-list Rep. Marcelino 'Nonoy' Libanan batted for the passage of a legislation that will strengthen the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) as a self-governing public higher educational institution.

Libanan filed House Bill 3507 or the proposed 'PNPA Charter of 2022' to build up the school that produces commissioned lieutenants for the country's 202,000-strong police force.
