Trinidad noted at a news conference at the NHA central office in Quezon City that an enabling law must be passed to allow the redistribution of the houses to Kadamay. While awaiting the enabling law, the NHA has already come up with the proposed resolution’s implementing rules and regulations ahead of time “so we could readily redistribute the units anytime,” Trinidad said. “Not all those who occupied the housing units for the uniformed men and women can be awarded. To date, 71 Kadamay members have already availed themselves of the NHA shelter program in some other areas, Trinidad added, and an investigation is still “running.”“We have subjected the families to pre-qualification. In March, 8,494 Kadamay members illegally occupied the housing units of the NHA in Pandi as well as in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
