PROPOSED RESOLUTION

Whereas, the Department of Interior and Local Government has released an

official memo regarding motorcycles and back ridings;
Whereas, the official memo provides the Government's requirements for
couples that wished to back ride;
Whereas, among these requirements was the safety barrier or shield whose
design shall be approved by the IATF National Task Force for COVID-19;
Whereas, the said safety barrier and shield designed and presented by the
DILG was unnecessary and risky to both passenger and driver;
Whereas, the minimum health protocols from the Department of Health such
as wearing of face masks and other safety gear like helmets should be
enough;
Whereas, Mayor Jose Carlo Martinez of Bogo-Cebu City signed an Executive
Order (E.O) No. 41 last August 5, 2020 that laid down new guidelines and
rules on regulating motor back riding;
Whereas, the need to address this issue shall be given importance;
Therefore, I would like to file a resolution addressed to the City Mayor
requesting to study the possibility to craft and issue an Executive Order for
guidelines and rules on regulating motorcycles back riding, especially on the
back riders’ safety barrier.
