Malacañang is in favor of having one policy for health protocols to help restart the tourism and aviation industries in the country.
Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, however, said the law allows autonomy for local government units (LGUs).
“Matagal na yang kinukonsidera ng IATF (Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases) at pinaguusapan. Sa ngayon, meron tayong batas na nagbibigay ng local autonomy sa ating mga LGUs at hindi natin pupuwedeng panghimasukan,” explained Roque.
But, the Palace official expressed support for a “common” policy responses to the coronavirus pandemic, similar to what local chief executives in Metro Manila have been doing.
“Ang ginagawa ng mga Metro Manila mayors can be model kung magkakaroon sana ng consensus ang lahat ng mga mayor at mga gobernador para sa isang common policy.
“Yan po ay makakatulong talaga sa pagbukas ng ekonomiya at pagsigla ng ating sektor ng turismo. We are in favor pero working with the existing legal framework,” he also said.
