Senator Robin Padilla explained that he deferred Cagayan de Oro Representatives Rufus Rodriguez's appearance at today's Senate Constitutional Amendments and Revision of Codes Committee hearing on the House-approved resolution seeking to push for Charter change (cha-cha) via a constitutional convention (con-con) due to inter-parliamentary courtesy.
Senator Robin Padilla explained that he deferred Cagayan de Oro Representatives Rufus Rodriguez's appearance at today's Senate Constitutional Amendments and Revision of Codes Committee hearing on the House-approved resolution seeking to push for Charter change via a constitutional convention due to inter-parliamentary courtesy.
Earlier in the day, Rodriguez said he was disappointed over the last-minute cancellation of the invitation for him to attend the Senate hearing. "Pero siyempre ako po ay bago dito sa pagiging mambabatas. Kailangan akong sumunod sa mga bagay na sinasabi nilang tradisyon at inter-parliamentary courtesy, yan ang tawag nila. Kailangan ko sumunod," he added.
In a statement, Zubiri said he asked Padilla to postpone the hearing with congressmen to "heed the call" of Cavite Rep. Elpidio Barzaga for a ceasefire on the "heated" discussions on Cha-cha and hold a caucus rather than airing their stand in public.
