An Act Strengthening the Party-List System to Uphold Constitutional Intent, Ensure Authentic Representation of Marginalized and Underrepresented Sectors, and Prevent Its Use for Political Maneuvering, Amending for the Purpose Republic Act No. 7941, Otherwise Known as the 'party-List System Act'
The Party‑List System Integrity Act would tighten rules for groups that run for the 20 % party‑list seats in the House, requiring them to register with COMELEC, prove they are real, independent organizations, and meet strict standards on leadership, funding and activity; it also bans groups linked to religious sects, foreign support, or used as proxies for term‑limited politicians, and gives COMELEC powers to investigate and sanction violations.
