MANILA, Philippines — A bill creating the National Land Use Act that would ensure appropriate usage of natural resources was approved by the House of Representatives on third and final reading on Monday. House Bill (HB) No. 8162 was approved after 262 lawmakers voted in favor of the bill, while three voted against the same. There were no abstentions. Lawmakers have called for the passage of a detailed National Land Use Act or NALUA as the current land use policies in the country have been decentralized — with local governments having no exact guide as to how land should be utilized.
