Senator Sherwin Gatchalian is pushing for the passage of a bill that seeks to streamline existing laws and regulations overseeing the domestic Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) industry.

Gatchalian said that once the bill is passed into law, Filipino households no longer have to deal with the consequences of having illegally-refilled and poor-quality LPG cylinders.

The bill seeks to govern the activities in the LPG value chain, particularly the importation, refining, refilling, transportation, conveyance, distribution, and marketing of LPG and the manufacturing, re-qualifying, exchanging, and swapping of LPG pressure vessels. The DOE also reported that in the commercial sector, LPG consumption rose at a rapid pace of 10.4 percent annually from 2007 to 2017.

“This is evidenced by a series of accidents involving LPG causing loss of life, limb, and property,” the lawmaker added.
