MANILA, Philippines – The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) is considering to file legal actions against the Department of Education’s move to teach sex education in public schools, an official said.
“We’re submitting it to the legal department of the CBCP, and on the basis of the evaluation of the legal department, it will be sent to the corresponding Episcopal Commission for study like the Episcopal Commission on Catholic Education then (to the) Episcopal Commission on the Family,” CBCP president Tandag Bishop Nereo Odchimar said.
He said the CBCP’s legal staff is now looking into the possible implications if the plan would be legislated or institutionalized by the government.
Odchimar added that the issue will also be taken during the annual plenary of the collegial body on July. –Dennis Carcamo (philstar.com)
