WHEREAS, reports have been received of the insolvent condition of the several pension systems of the Government, necessitating that step be taken immediately to place these systems on a sound financial basis;
WHEREAS, from time to time legislation providing for retirement, gratuity, and pension payments has been approved without discriminate regard for length of service rendered, for age of retirement and for the amounts of benefit to be paid; and

The Committee is likewise authorized to call upon any Government office or agency for such information or assistance as it may deem necessary and shall submit its report not later than May fifteenth, nineteen hundred and thirty six.
Done at the City of Manila, this seventeenth day of March, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty-six, and of the Commonwealth of the Philippines, the first.
