Change in IRR of RA 9520




The Joint Congressional Oversight Committee on Cooperatives (JCOCC)-House Panel  has created a Technical Working Group (TWG).



Headed by COOP-NATCCO Party List Rep. DR. ANTHONY BRAVO, it is tasked to conduct initial review of the proposed amendments to the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of R.A. 9520, submitted by the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA).



Under R.A. 9520, the JCOCC is mandated to review and approve the IRR of the Philippine Cooperative Code.



The JCOCC is composed of the chairperson of the Senate Committee on Cooperatives; and the chairperson of the House Committee on Cooperatives Development (headed by Rep. CRESENTE C. PAEZ, of the COOP-NATCCO Party List); and by four members each from both Houses (House of Representatives, Senate).



In its recent meeting, the TWG focused its discussion on Sections 5 to 11, Rule 7 of the IRR, which provide for the specific training requirements for the officers of cooperatives.



Rep. Evelina Escudero (1st District, Sorsogon) and representatives from the Office of Rep. Paez; CDA, NATCCO, PCC, regional cooperative development councils; and Quezon City Council also attended the TWG meeting.
