HB 1743
House·20th Congress·Filed Jul 10, 2025
An Act Establishing an On-Site, In-City or Near-City Resettlement Program for Informal Settler Families in Accordance with a People's Plan and Mandating Relocating Local Government Units to Provide Other Basic Services and Livelihood Components in Favor of the Recipient Local Government Unit, Amending for the Purpose Republic Act No. 7279, Otherwise Known as the "Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992", as Amended
In plain language
The bill amends the 1992 Urban Development and Housing Act to require that informal settler families be resettled as close as possible to their current location—on‑site, within the same city, or in a nearby city—through a community‑driven “People’s Plan.” It also obliges local governments to provide basic services (water, electricity, sanitation, roads) and livelihood support, and creates a congressional oversight committee to monitor the program.
