AMENDING SECTION TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN OF THE REVISED
ADMINISTRATIVE CODE |
(REPEALED BY REPUBLIC ACT NO. 1408)
Section 1. Section two thousand two hundred and
eighteen of the Revised Administrative Code is hereby amended to read
as follows: "Sec. 2218.
Appointment of lieutenants and substitute lieutenants by councilors and
their allowances. — Each councilor shall be empowered to appoint one
lieutenant in each barrio under his immediate supervision. A lieutenant
of barrio shall be a duly qualified elector, shall receive a
reimbursement for traveling and other expenses not to exceed fifteen
pesos per month, and shall report directly to the councilor appointing
him. Each councilor shall be empowered to appoint a substitute
lieutenant who shall be a duly qualified elector, for each barrio under
his immediate supervision to take the place of the lieutenant of such
barrio, during the temporary absence or inability to perform his
duties, and he shall receive the reimbursement which otherwise would be
received by the proper barrio lieutenant during the latter's absence
from duty: Provided, however, That if on account of the allowance of
the barrio lieutenants and their substitute by virtue of this Act, the
municipality concerned incurs an overdraft in its general fund or the
operating expenses thereof exceed the revenue collection of the
municipality, the Mayor, upon the recommendation of the municipal
treasurer, shall stop the payment of said reimbursement until such time
as available fund exists for the purpose to be certified by the
municipal-treasurer: Provided, further, That barrio lieutenants may be
employed in national, provincial and municipal public works projects
and may receive compensation therefrom, but they shall not receive the
corresponding reimbursement for traveling and other expenses herein
authorized during the days of such employment." Sec. 2. This Act shall take effect upon its approval. Approved: June 18, 1952 |
