Cebuano News: HLURB office alang Caraga hayan mabalik pag-usab
Butuan City - Kun ma-aprobahan, mabutangan na pagbalik ug housing and land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB) field office dinhe sa syudad alang sa mga kliyente sa tibook Caraga region.
Kini ang gilaumang mahitabo sa usa ka resolusyon nga naghangyo sa president sa HLURB sa Manila central office nga butangan nila pag-usab ug ilang field office dinhe sa syudad sa Butuan aron dali ra nilang matubag ang housing needs sa ilang mga kliyente.
Kun mahinumduman, aduna nay regional office sa HLURB dinhi sa syudad kaniadtong 1992.
Apan tungod sa pag-implementar sa ilang rationalization plan, gisirad-an na nila ang ilang mga field offices sa rehiyong Caraga ug rehiyon 12 ug giusa na lamang kauban ang Cagayan de Oro City.
Tungod sa kadaghan na sa ilang atimanong kliyente, nga naglangkob sa 3 ka rehiyon, nahimong mas dogay na noon ang panahon sa pag-proseso sa mga dokumento.
Matod pa ni Bokal Aquino W. Gambe, nga nangusog sa maong hangyo, nakahatag kini’g kahasol ug dugang gasto sa mga kliyente dinhi sa Caraga tungod sa kalayo sa ilang buhatan labi na ang pagbalik-balik ngadto sa Cagayan aron pag-follow-up sa ilang papeles.
Gituohan nga ang pagbutang ug kaugalingong buhatan dinhi sa Caraga region, mao ray sulosyon atua na gipadala sa Manila central office alang sa ilang hinanaling pagtubag. (JV Demain, AGNOR Buletin/PIA-Caraga)

Legarda seeks inquiry into concerns of Nurses and their profession
Senator Loren Legarda has sought an inquiry into urgent concerns of Filipino nurses and the nursing profession, noting that the problems faced by the country’s health professionals reflect a failure on the part of government to promote the people’s right to health.
Through Senate Resolution No. 304, Legarda urged the Senate Committee on Health and Demography to conduct an investigation on the serious concerns of the country’s nursing sector with the end in view of protecting the rights of nurses and their profession.
“Our nurses are hindered from efficiently performing their duties as primary health care providers. One of the most serious concerns is the anomaly in the hiring of nurses who, instead of getting remuneration for their work, have to pay in exchange for work certification and training experience,” Legarda said.
The Senator also voiced concern on the lack of plantilla positions for nurses in government hospitals; contractualization of nurses; lack of supervision over the condition of Filipino nurses working abroad resulting to delayed assistance; and the non-implementation of decent wage and due benefits according to law.

.
Legarda explained that under the Nursing Law of 2002 (RA 9173) and the Magna Carta of Public Health Workers (RA 7305), the entry salary of a nurse in the government should be at Salary Grade 15 or about Php25,000, and that they are entitled to benefits such as hazard pay, subsistence allowance and night shift differential.
She also explained that the lack of budget for the health sector affects the delivery of health services especially for the very poor and those in far-flung communities.
“The government has to take immediate, concrete steps to resolve these problems that affect our health workers so that they can efficiently fulfill their duties without having to worry about how to make ends meet,” Legarda said.
“Unless we provide the adequate protection to our nurses, we cannot enforce the guarantees expressed in the 1987 Constitution to promote the people’s right to health, much less achieve the Millennium Development Goals, to which we have committed,” she concluded.
