EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 99 - REPEALING PRESIDENTIAL DECREES NOS. 1727-A AND 1804 WHICH PROHIBIT AND PENALIZE THE GRANT OF PERMITS TO CERTAIN PERSONS

WHEREAS, Presidential Decrees Nos. 1727-A and 1804 abridge the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances, and are therefore inconsistent with Proclamation No. 3 dated March 25, 1986, which adopted in toto Article IV of the 1973 Constitution, as amended.

WHEREAS, to avoid doubts on and disputes over their invalidity and to make effective the guarantees of the rights and freedoms of the people, there is a need to expressly repeal them; 

NOW, THEREFORE, I, CORAZON C. AQUINO, President of the Philippines, do hereby order:

Section 1. Presidential Decrees Nos. 1727-A and 1804 are hereby repealed.

Sec. 2. This Acts shall take effect immediately.  

Done in the city of Manila, this 18th day of December, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and eighty-six.
