Can a member of a Constitutional Commission hold another office during their tenure?
A member of any Constitutional Commission is strictly prohibited from holding any other public or private office. This absolute prohibition is enforced throughout the entire duration of their official tenure. The rule is designed to ensure their undivided attention and loyalty to their constitutional duties. This strict limitation on their professional engagements is firmly established in Article IX, A, Section 2 1987 Philippine Constitution. “SECTION 2. No Member of a Constitutional Commission shall, during his tenure, hold any other office or employment.” 06-Mar-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
