00:00Even in July, the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte is expected to start.
00:05The Senate was inspected by two officials.
00:09Witness, Mark Salazar.
00:15Nothing has changed in the former Senate.
00:18The impeachment trial against Vice President Sara Duterte started on July 30.
00:24If there is no debate about this, there is nothing stopping the minority.
00:28They are agreeing, but informally, not formally.
00:33But to show that they are ready to become an impeachment court,
00:37the Secretary General of the House of Representatives and the Secretary of the Senate
00:42inspected the final touches of the preparation.
00:45We're very happy with the setup.
00:48We have no comments, no complaints.
00:51The session hall has 340 seats.
00:55The staff of each Senator, Judge, Defense, Prosecution and the public are divided.
01:0230 seats additional to the VIP box.
01:06The Tolentino room, which has a size of 150 square meters,
01:10will be given to the prosecution team of the camera.
01:13They would have added an extra room to the camera, but they are still looking for it.
01:18Two basic rooms, room for our prosecutors.
01:22We have 11 prosecutors and the secretariat support group.
01:29The defense also needs to go through the process.
01:33In the defense, yes, we've also identified,
01:36but in deference to the fact that we have not yet talked to the defense,
01:42I will not say it yet. We wrote them yesterday.
01:46There is still no holding room for the witnesses.
01:50There are already a lot of prosecution witnesses.
01:53I'm not in the prosecution team,
01:57but maybe 7 times, let's say 10, so that's about 70.
02:04But that's a rough estimate.
02:07Could be more or less per article.
02:12For now, the Senate is not yet spending on impeachment.
02:16Aside from varnishing the old tables used in the former impeachment trials,
02:22the Senators are also trying to kill them with robes.
02:26The expenses will happen in the trial itself.
02:30For GMA Integrated News, I am Mark Salazar, your witness.
02:46Thanks for watching.
