BALANGA CITY — The Bataan Police Provincial Office (BPPO) is preparing to provide firearms licensing assistance to the public during the upcoming “Legishear: Bawat Batas ay Mahalaga,” a nationwide legislative consultation initiative spearheaded by the House of Representatives.
As part of the preparations, Bataan police director Col. Marites A. Salvadora, representing Police Regional Office 3 director BGen. Jess B. Mendez, attended a coordination meeting on Nov. 9, alongside deputy provincial director for operations Lt. Col. Marcelino Teloza and representatives of the House of Representatives. The meeting was presided over by Bataan 3rd District Rep. Angela S. Garcia.
Discussions focused on strengthening coordination among participating agencies to ensure the orderly and smooth implementation of the activity in the province.
During the meeting, Salvadora confirmed that the BPPO would set up a One-Stop Shop for License to Own and Possess Firearms (LTOPF) services, allowing residents to access firearms licensing assistance conveniently during the event.
The initiative aims to bring government services closer to the public while promoting responsible firearm ownership and cooperation among government agencies.
Through its participation, the Bataan PNP seeks to support the upcoming legislative consultation by making essential police services more accessible to the Bataan community.
