4.5 For purposes of Item 4.4 hereof, the number of members per group
shall be determined by the Project Facilitator to ensure that at least
three Pakyaw Groups are organized for the competitive selection. The
determination by the Project Facilitator of the number of members per
Pakyaw Group shall be exercised with regard to the objective of
providing work to as many laborers as possible.
4.6 A Group Leader shall be elected from among the members of the
group who shall be the signatory to the Pakyaw Contract and any other
documents pertaining to the work on behalf of the Pakyaw Group. He
may be replaced at any time by the group through an election for that
purpose, after due notice to the Project Facilitator and the Barangay
Chairperson. Any such replacement shall not invalidate any previous
Pakyaw Contract.”

connection with the procurement of the above Pakyaw labor and observed the

original mode of procurement could not be pursued or the omission of the
above infrastructure projects undertaken by the administration from the APP.
