When was RA 9297 approved by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo?

February 6, 2004 February 22, 2004 May 13, 2004 May 29, 2004

Correct Answer:

May 13, 2004

Explanation:

The important idea is that a Republic Act is considered approved on the date the President signs it into law. For RA 9297, the signing occurred on May 13, 2004, by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. That signing date is the official date of approval. The other dates listed are different milestones (earlier stages like passage by the legislature or later steps like publication and possible effectivity), but they do not represent the date the law was approved. After signing, the law is published in the Official Gazette and specifies when it takes effect, which is typically a set period after publication unless otherwise stated.
