19 December 2014 A.en0on: PAPM Partners SUBJECT: Technical and Trainings Commi5ee Update as of December 2014 Dear Partner, Joyful Yule0de gree0ngs! Task Force Developments FDA Task Force •  While wai0ng for the tripar0te encounter with FDA and EMB, TFC Engineer Gretchen Fontejon-­‐Enarle and Mr. Johnson Ongking men0oned our concerns with DTI during their mee0ng last December 4. DTI recommended that we bring our plight to the Na?onal Compe??veness Council (NCC). •  DTI can only convince other government agencies through “moral suasion”. NCC has the power to make decisions that government agencies will have to follow. •  A posi0on paper has been prepared to convince them of our cause. BPS Task Force •  The BPS-­‐TF convening last December 8 was cancelled due to Typhoon Ruby. This was reset for January 7 in lieu of the hec0c schedules of the season. •  BPS/TC25 met last December 10 at the Barducci Ristorante in Serendra. This doubled as a Christmas gathering. Honorarium checks were issued to the two sectors: Consumer and Academe. The Professional Sector was not represented in this session. •  PNS463 for Semi-­‐gloss Latex Topcoat White and Light Tints is now complete. Next on the table is the Gloss Enamel White and Colored. EWC Task Force •  The lunch consulta0on with EWC took place at Barrio Fiesta EDSA Greenhills last November 27 along with TFC Malou Valiente and President Henry So. •  The 2-­‐week no0ce for suspension has been extended to 60 days which is the global maximum for their regulated industry. •  The cost is presently 0ered according to number of paint products, namely: 100, 300, 500. We argued that this should be tapered to lesser brackets (e.g., 10, 25, 50) in order to be inclusive for all members. •  The interim commiXee that will ini0ate the Paint SEAL Program will assemble some 0me January 2015.
