The PRLS provided assistance to the Blue Ribbon Committee of the Bangsamoro Parliament in Promoting Moral Governance and Accountability on 5 July 2023, in Davao City. The goal was to facilitate a roundtable discussion that would strengthen the committee’s mandate of promoting moral governance and ensuring accountability within the Bangsamoro government. Vincent Casil, division chief of BTA’s PRLS-Legislative Research Division, discussed how the petition mechanism could be incorporated into the committee’s function.

According to Casil, this will result in an overall improvement in government services by empowering citizens and making them feel like active contributors. The Blue Ribbon Committee has jurisdiction over all matters, including the investigation of malfeasance, misfeasance, and nonfeasance in office by Bangsamoro Government officers and employees.
