Lawmaker suggests BI guidelines for covering Filipinos' flight expenses due to secondary inspections.
Lawmaker Rep. Luis Campos Jr. stated that the Bureau of Immigration (BI) should issue guidelines for expenses incurred by Filipinos who miss their flights due to secondary inspections by immigration officers.
A special provision in the 2024 General Appropriations Law mandates that the travel expenses for Filipinos denied or deferred boarding without a court order should be covered from the BI's special trust fund account of accrued collections of express lane fees and charges.
This provision aims to balance the right of Filipinos to travel with the BI's duty to enforce immigration laws.
