NAGHAIN si Cagayan de Oro Rep. Rufus Rodriguez ng joint resolution upang mabigyan umano ng temporary franchise ang ABS-CBN na nag-sign off kagabi.
Ayon kay Rodriguez layunin ng kanyang House Joint Resolution 30 na magpatuloy ang operasyon ng ABS-CBN hanggang Hunyo 30, 2022, ang huling araw ng 18th Congress.
“I am hoping we can expedite the hearings on this measure amid the Covid-19 pandemic even if we have to hear all stakeholders through the new normal videoconferencing platform,” ani Rodriguez.
Isa si Rodriguez sa mga kongresista na naghain ng panukala upang i-renew ang prangkisa ng ABS-CBN ng 25 taon.
“It has to be a new grant and no longer a renewal, since the radio-tv station’s franchise already expired midnight of last May 4,” ani Rodriguez.
Sa halip na magpalabas ng provisional authority to operate, nagpalabas ng cease and desist order ang National Telecommunications Commission laban sa Channel 2.
“Now the remedy is for the House to speed up its hearings on my proposals for a temporary franchise and for the grant of a new 25-year broadcasting service privilege,” ani Rodriguez.
