Legal Authority for the Transfer

The President is authorized under Book III, Title III, Chapter 10, Section 31(3) of the Administrative Code of 1987 to transfer agencies between the Office of the President and other departments or agencies.
This legal basis provides the foundation for reassigning POPCOM under NEDA.

Objectives and Purpose

The transfer aims to facilitate better coordination of population-related policies and programs by aligning POPCOM with the socioeconomic planning body, NEDA.

Implementation and Effectivity

The Executive Order, signed by President Corazon C. Aquino and later by Executive Secretary Franklin M. Drilon, officially attaches POPCOM to NEDA.
This reassignment took effect immediately upon signing on August 14, 1991, in Manila.

Important Legal Concepts

Attachment of agencies entails placing an agency under the administrative supervision and control of another agency without dissolving or merging it.
This structure is intended to enhance policy coherence and program synergy within government operations related to population management.
