[Title] => Lack of quorum delays special session

[Title] => Big question: Will House have quorum for special session?
[Summary] => As lawmakers respond to President Arroyo’s call for a special session beginning today to approve the controversial value-added tax (VAT) bill, the big question is: Will there be a quorum in the House of Representatives?
In the Senate, Sen. Joker Arroyo warned again yesterday of a possible violation of the Constitution if the House or the Senate fails to muster a quorum, and even worse repercussions if the lower chamber uses the so-called "mumbling roll call" tactic to falsely claim there is one.
