In the resumption of the hearing of the ABS-CBN hearing, Senior Deputy Majority Leader Jesus Crispin Remulla and Anakalusugan party-list Rep. Mike Defensor questions National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and ABS-CBN Network concerning the operation of ABS-CBN digital box called TV-Plus despite having an expired franchise.

“Ang sabi po ng OSG, tama nga, kasama nga po ito, at puwede po kaming mag-issue ng alias cease and desist order… Inaaral na po ng aming legal department at kung sakaling okay na man po ang aming pag-aaral, ii-issue namin ‘yong aming alias cease and desist order,” said Commissioner Cordoba.

Lawmakers also tackle the relationship between Amcara Broadcasting (operator of Channel 43) and ABS-CBN.
