Phase 4. Evaluation of the Implementation of Ordinancesng>Theng> work of the sanggunian does not end with the enactment of a law. ng>Theng>sanggunian must determine if the ordinances it enacted are implemented and if so,how they are implemented by the executive branch. ng>Theng> evaluation process seeks todetermine if legislative intent is carried out and determine if funds used forimplementing government programs are not wasted. This function of local legislativebodies is called legislative oversight.Recommendations from the evaluation feedback into the first stage of the legislationcycle and become an additional agenda or part of the legislative agenda of a new setof legislators. ng>Theng> cycle continues with the crafting of new ordinances, theirenactment and evaluation.DevelopmentDevelopment is a goal and an end of local legislation. Development is the sustainedcapacity to achieve a better life. For a nation or community, having a better life means thatcitizens have a higher life expectancy and enjoy a higher quality of life regardless of age,sex, gender, religion or ethnicity. Quality of life involves: a) the capacity to do, and b) thecapacity to be. Underlying these capacities is the freedom of choice. Hence, development isalso about expanding the range of choices of people. 4ng>Localng> legislation is considered an effective tool for good governance and results inordinances and resolutions that enable citizens to achieve a better life or development.ng>Localng> legislation is effective if it contributes to the attainment of the community’s sharedvision and results in poverty reduction, gender equality, environmental protection, peace andunity, accountability and transparency of local officials, and active participation of citizens insocial, economic and political transformation.4 Amartaya Sen, 1998, “ng>Theng> Concept of Development,” in Hollis B. Chenery and T.N. Srinivasan,Handbook of Development Economics, Vol. m1, Elsevier Science B.V.12
C. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES FOR EFFECTIVE LOCALLEGISLATIONFor legislation to result in development and transform the lives of people in a meaningfulway, it must address the six crosscutting development themes or issues: poverty reduction,gender equality, environmental protection, peace and unity, accountability and transparencyand citizen participation.To assist LGUs in mainstreaming development issues in the local governance work, theLGSP has developed a ng>Toolkitng> for Mainstreaming Cross-cutting ng>Theng>mes available from theirwebsite: http://www.lgsp.org.ph.Poverty reductionPoverty reduction is essentially about reducing the number of persons living in poverty.Persons living in poverty are those that are unable to meet their basic needs to attain adecent life. ng>Theng>y are persons deprived of a long and healthy life, of acquisition of knowledgeand of access to resources for a decent standard of living. 5ng>Localng> legislation can reduce poverty if it improves the ability of citizens to purchase goodsand services, to produce these goods and services or avail of them from government ornongovernmental organizations. By improving this ability, citizens are enabled to have along and healthy life and to gain knowledge, access and opportunities to resources for adecent standard of living. More specifically, local legislation can address poverty by enactingordinances that authorize targeted programs addressing issues relating to: 1) limited accessto basic social services such as basic education, primary health, nutrition, water andsanitation and shelter, and 2) low income and employment.To further guide LGUs in sharpening the focus of local plans and legislation, the NationalAnti-Poverty Commission and other government agencies have developed tools and theGuidebook on Poverty Diagnosis and Planning which can be accessed through the DILG.5 United Nations Development Programme, Human Development Report, New York: Oxford Press,1997; and NAPC and DILG, Guidebook on Poverty Diagnosis and Planning.13
