LOOK: Ateneo president, athletics director attend Senate hearing on athletes' deaths — ANC

[0:00] There are a lot of bills here, but what we intend to do is really to get all of the pertinent parts to form the School Safety Act. [0:13] We've also asked the help of EDCOM 2 to help us do this. [0:17] Senator Gatchalian focused on the mobile phones, Senator Tulfo focused on the CCTV. [0:22] One of the things I saw when I went to Tacloban, and let me address our friends from DEPED here, [0:33] hindi naging malinaw kung ano yung gagawin nung skwelahan as the incident was happening. [0:39] Some of the parents pumunta sa tatlong hospital bago nila nahanap yung mga anak nilang nabaril. [0:47] May isang batang nabaril, hindi ko siya nakausap pero nakausap ko yung magulang niya. [0:53] He was shot, naglakad siya outside of the school. [0:58] May rider na nakita siya, buti nilang dinala siya sa hospital. [1:02] And he walked inside the hospital, akala nila masakit yung ngipin kasi he was holding his mouth. [1:12] Pero yun pala, lumabas na yung bala dito sa kanyang baba. [1:15] So, klaro na, nung nagkakagulo na, hindi rin naging malinaw kung ano yung mga patakaran na dapat gawin in situations like this. [1:24] Of course, this is the first, I think this is probably the first mass shooting we've had in our country. [1:30] Pero maganda siguro na handa dapat yung mga skwelahan rin sa mga protocol. [1:34] Anong hospital na dapat puntahan? Ano yung gagawin ng mga polis? [1:39] Saan pupunta yung mga magulang? Ano yung mga paraan dyan? [1:43] That will also form part of the School Safety Act. [1:47] And we're piecing together the different suggestions and recommendations to really have a comprehensive School Safety Act that we can pass hopefully within the next two months. [1:59] The committee intends to prioritize this, although alam nyo naman ito, magating sa edukasyon, lahat priority. [2:07] But we do intend to prioritize this and put together all of these bills into an omnibus School Safety Act with of course the support of DepEd. [2:17] And today, what we intend to do is we'll start with the school violence and the school shooting incidents. [2:23] So we'll ask PNP to provide some context kung ano po yung nangyari sa Tacloban and of course if they wish to also share about the other reports that have mushroomed. [2:34] In the past few months, dumami na po yung mga report na mga batang merong insidente or merong mga incidences of violence or yung pagdala ng mga dangerous weapons sa mga skwelahan. [2:50] Mapag-usapan po yan ng PNP. Then we'll have DepEd respond. [2:54] Alam ko, nagbanggit na rin si Secretary Angara na may mga measures na rin kayong ginagawa. [3:00] Hopefully, yung mga measures na ito at yung nilalaman ng School Safety Act ay magkaparehas naman. [3:06] Mapag-usapan natin ano yung kulang, ano yung sobra, how can we improve the law further. [3:10] After that, we will ask Ateneo to also provide some information about what happened to our two basketball players. [3:22] And then later on, we will also ask maybe CHED or the government agencies to also respond and talk about what are the measures that we can do [3:31] and include in the School Safety Act para hindi na humaulit yung mga gantong klaseng insidente. [3:37] And then we'll open up the floor for discussions. [3:40] If you've been to my hearings in the past, we give everyone a free chance to speak. [3:45] So if you want to speak after the presentations and after the senator's questions, you are free to do so. [3:50] You can just raise your hand and we'll have an open discussion how to improve these measures [3:55] and how to address the problems we're trying to address. [3:58] So with that, let me ask our Comsec, Bea, to place on record all of the resource persons who are here. [4:05] Good morning, Mr. Chair, our Honorable Senate President, resource persons, and guests.
