Another afternoon online regarding plastic waste management on 19 January 2022 by PAGASA President Steven T. Cua. The Hearing by Congress is the result of the two marathon TWG Meetings the previous week to straighten out kinks shareholders may have in their role when the Extended Producers Responsibility (EPR) bill is passed into law.

Chairing the Hearing is Ecology Committee Head Rep. Glona C. Labadlabad (top, 2R) together with Deputy Speakers Camille Villar (upper rightmost) and Rufus Rodriguez who were co-authors of this Joint Bill. Congress finally passed it on third reading after years and years of hearings to effect laws on plastic waste management.
