Dear Mr. Arvic Alvarez,


You requested for information on the following: “(1) Number of Informal Settlers (IS) along the Philippine National Railways in the following PNR Stations in Manila: (a) Sta. Mesa; (b) Tutuban; (c) España; and (d) Blumentritt; and (2) Demographic of IS along Manila PNR Stations (Age, sex, etc.).”

Unfortunately, the DSWD does not have the information you need. Thus, we are constrained to deny your request.

The data requested is probably available at the LGU level as it is the LGU that has the information on informal settlers in their particular city or municipality. Hence,, you may wish to direct your requests to the LGU of the City of Manila.


Very Truly Yours,

Atty. Maria Cassandra M. Urbiztondo
FOI Decision Maker
