MANILA, Philippines — As part of his call for stricter gun ownership rules, Sen. Raffy Tulfo is pushing for the mandatory checking of gun owners’ storage facilities before the issuance of a license to own and possess firearms (LTOPF).
According to Tulfo, “We need to revisit existing laws on gun ownership.”
“Dapat bago mag-issue ng LTOPF ang [Philippine National Police] ay ma-inspect muna nila kung ang licensed owner ay mayroong secured na lugar na mapaglalagyan ng baril niya,” he said in a press release.
(Before issuing an LTOPF, the [Philippine National Police] should first inspect if the licensed owner has a secure location for storing his firearm.)
