MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine National Police (PNP) on Wednesday, August 20, announced the extension of the validity of firearms licenses expiring in 2014 to 2015.
In a statement, the PNP said this would allow the Firearms and Explosives Office to “refocus more on the information technology enhancements of the firearms registration system” as mandated by Republic Act 10591 or the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Law of 2013.
PNP Civil Security Group (CSG) head Police Director Melito Mabilin said the system upgrade would ease licensing requirements. Mabilin added the extension was made given “considerations regarding the period of publication of the revised fees and charges for registration and licensing requirements.”
The recommendation was made by Mabilin, FEO head Chief Superintendent Virgilio Moro Lazo and approved by PNP chief Director General Alan Purisima. – Rappler.com
