Q&A (PROCLAMATION NO. 593)

Proclamation No. 593 amended Proclamation No. 568 dated July 20, 1932, and Proclamation No. 626 dated October 18, 1933.

One hundred (100) hectares of land were allocated as the site of the additional campus for CSSAC for the establishment of extension classes and new courses.

The land parcels are allocated for educational purposes, agricultural purposes including farm-shelter projects and a coconut seed garden, housing, resettlement for informal settlers and landless families, and internal security purposes for the 9th Infantry Division of the Philippine Army.

The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) has administrative jurisdiction over the additional campus of CSSAC.

The extension site for Pili National High School is under the administration of the Department of Education.

The National Housing Authority (NHA) is responsible for the housing and relocation/resettlement site purposes.

The disposal of lands for housing and resettlement purposes is governed by the Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992 (RA 7279).

The LIAC is created to ensure the smooth implementation of the housing program. It is chaired by the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council, with members including the Provincial Government of Camarines Sur, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, and the Presidential Commission for the Urban Poor.

The NHA is required to reimburse the national government the value of the land after final payment of the areas reserved for socialized housing purposes by the qualified beneficiaries.
