A MEASURE seeking a cost-free transport delivery of relief goods to areas declared in a state of calamity has passed the third reading at the House of Representatives.
House Bill 10924, or the Free Transportation of Relief Goods Act, also seeks to require local government unit executives of disaster-hit areas to take charge of distributing these relief goods to remote areas in their localities, as well as the granting of tax incentives to private logistics firms for delivering relief goods free of charge.
