BONTOC, Mountain Province – Rep. Maximo Dalog is among the 43 legislators who posted perfect attendance in 45 session days of Congress last year since it opened July 26,2010 to end of last year.
He is also the only one among the Cordillera congressmen included in the list announced by House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte last Dec. 14 before the House adjourned for the holidays.
The 43 congressmen, including Belmonte, who represented 15 percent of the total membership of the House, received their Parker ballpens during their Christmas party last Dec. 14 in recognition of their feat.
There are at present 283 congressmen including party-list representatives composing the House of Representatives.
Belmonte reported a “sterling” attendance record with 78 percent average daily attendance during plenary sessions.
Dalog said his perfect attendance in sessions and committee meetings was a way of dispensing public service to his constituents who sent him to Congress.
“We have to be true to our commitments and responsibilities in representing the province in Congress. Attending the sessions is one of them,” he said.
As part of his report of accomplishments, it was gathered that he filed 27 house bills, eight resolutions and co-authored seven house bills.
Among the bills were for establishment and conversion of national high schools in the different parts of the province, the status of the Mountain Province State Polytechnic College to a university and conversion of provincial roads to national roads.
Dalog serves as the chairman of the special committee on North Luzon Growth Quadrangle, the vice chairman of committee on tourism and vice chairman of the committee on national cultural communities.
He is also member of committees on public works and highways, accounts, basic education and culture, higher and technical education and reforestation. -- Roger Sacyaten
