                    [Title] => Family members in Senate set dangerous precedent, warns Tatad
                    [Summary] => 



A former legislator cautioned yesterday against having two members of a family in the Senate, saying that such a situation might set a dangerous precedent that could destroy the institution.


In the weekly Kapihan sa Sulo Hotel forum, Francisco Tatad criticized the United Opposition’s plan to include in its senatorial slate aspirants who already have a member of their family in the Senate.

"I don’t see any justification for the exclusive club of the Senate to have two members coming from the same family at the same time," Tatad said.
