Practice question
COMELEC determines a national initiative petition sufficient and proposes holding the vote thirty days after that determination. Under Section 8 of RA 6735, how does the proposed date compare with the prescribed window?
- It is earlier than the forty-five-day minimum
- It is valid because any date within a year is permitted
- It is mandatory because the period is exactly thirty days
- It is too late because the maximum is fifteen days
- The determination date is never relevant
Legal references
- RA 6735, Initiative and Referendum Act, August 4, 1989: https://elibrary.judiciary.gov.ph/thebookshelf/showdocs/2/2017; Section 8.
