HB 3795

In plain language

The proposal would split the current municipality of Jose Abad Santos, creating a new municipality called Don Mariano Peralta made up of 13 barangays, with its seat in Barangay Nuing Proper. The new LGU would be formed only after a majority‑vote plebiscite overseen by COMELEC, and its first officials would be appointed by the President until the next elections. After creation, the municipality would receive its own share of the National Tax Allotment and be governed by the Local Government Code.
