                    [Title] => Gullas seeks early submission of 2007 budget
                    [Summary] => 

A House leader asked President Arroyo yesterday to submit her proposed national budget for 2007 long before her 30-day deadline ends on Aug. 24.


Deputy Majority Leader Eduardo Gullas said early submission of the budget would enable House members to speed up work on the measure.

"If we had our way, we would have preferred that the President turned over the new budget to Congress right after her State of the Nation Address last July 24. We could have worked on the bill right away," he said.

He indicated that Sen. Manuel Villar Jr. is the key to breaking the Senate-House deadlock on the President’s budget proposal for this year.

He said Villar could be a formidable candidate if he decides to challenge Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr. for the PM post.
