Metro Manila Council president and San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora on Friday backed calls to lift the suspension of the Non-Contact Apprehension Policy, believing it would help address traffic violations in the National Capital Region. | zacariansINQ
“If you ask me, given the four years that I’ve been a mayor, we really cannot have traffic enforcers all over the city of San Juan, more so all over the entire Metro Manila. So having the NCAP really helps in deterring traffic violators from committing these traffic violations,” he added.
“So this is something NCAP can instill … and given the data from MMDA, you will see that there was indeed an increase in the number of violations during the suspension,” he said. He also added that one of provisions under the agreement with the service provider is the acquisition of high-tech cameras which will be spread out in key areas around Metro Manila.
According to Zamora, no LGU will spend for the implementation of NCAP, as the funding for CCTV cameras will be shouldered by the service provider under its Public-Private-Partnership with MMDA.“Thus the service provider spends for everything and recoups it by getting a percentage of the fines that are collected,” said Zamora.
