00:00 Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is still not allowed to question the economic charter change that is being proposed to the House of Representatives.
00:08 According to a retired justice, some groups will try to propose the charter change through the People's Initiative.
00:16 Tina Panganiban Perez was there.
00:18 Some groups are now asking the Supreme Court to question the economic charter change when it is proposed to the Congress.
00:28 In the House of Representatives, only one of the three-point reading of the RBH 7 was approved next week while the RBH 6 is still in the Senate.
00:37 But according to a former Supreme Court magistrate, the issue cannot be raised if only the House of Representatives approved it.
00:45 That's why some groups who are supporting the People's Initiative are continuing to seek signatures.
00:53 From what I understand from the groups, they haven't actually stopped.
00:56 They're still collecting signatures as we speak.
00:59 It could become academic if Congress comes together and votes and passes these resolutions.
01:08 And ultimately, if they will agree to mandate a constitutional convention.
01:15 But even if the economic charter change is not approved by Congress, groups who support the charter change will still try.
01:23 I understand they'll continue.
01:24 They'll probably, if the initiative doesn't prosper, they'll continue with another initiative until we get to that point where we are actually as a country reviewing and revising the Constitution.
