Congress News: UNDER FOI BILL BY SENATE, BARANGAY OFFICIALS MUST BARE SALNs ONLINE Barangay chairpersons, including those in remote areas, aren’t exempt from uploading their statements of assets, liabilities and net worth (SALNs) on the Internet under the Senate’s version of the freedom of information (FOI) bill. Senate Bill No. 1733 mandates the President down to members of constitutional commissions and offices to upload their SALNs on their official websites. The bill likewise requires every government agency to post the SALNs, as well as the monthly income of all public officials with Salary Grade 27 and above or heads of office. SB 1733 imposes a penalty of imprisonment from one to six months and a fine of P10,000 to P100,000 on any government official or employee who conceals information that is subject to disclosure. newsinfo.inquirer.net/586209/even-village-heads-must-bare-their-salns-in-senate-foi-bill
