Where must appropriation and revenue bills originate?
Where must appropriation and revenue bills originate? All appropriation, revenue, or tariff bills must originate exclusively in the House of Representatives. This also includes bills authorizing an increase in public debt and private bills. However, the Senate retains the power to propose or concur with amendments. This rule is established in Article VI, Section 24 1987 Philippine Constitution. “SECTION 24. All appropriation, revenue or tariff bills, bills authorizing increase of the public debt, bills of local application, and private bills shall originate exclusively in the House of Representatives, but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments.” 01-Feb-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
