00:00The House Prosecution Panel will respect the decision of the Senate on the timeline of the impeachment trial against Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:09According to House Majority Deputy Leader Lawrence Devensore, one of the appointed prosecutors of the House,
00:15they know there is a possibility that the trial could start in June.
00:20One writer, Partless Representative Raj Gutierrez said their preparation will continue whatever happens to the impeachment.
00:29Also, an information campaign for the public will be organized to give them knowledge about the impeachment process.
00:37As of now, the House of Representatives is forming an impeachment secretariat,
00:42but they are not yet giving names of those who will be included here.
00:49Since the Constitution provides that a trial shall proceed forthwith,
00:54if we interpret forthwith, it should proceed as soon as possible.
00:59But since the Senate is an independent body, and we respect their independence being a bicameral legislature,
01:06we will leave that to the interpretation of the Senate.
01:10It's still not clear. Of course, it's been a while, but the impeachment secretariat will cater to all the needs that the House would have in relation to this sui generis proceeding.
01:19I think it will be from the top down regarding logistics, regarding support.
01:24It should be separate from the legislative function of the House.
