The Senate and House of Representatives contingents to the 25-member Commission on Appointments said Wednesday they would seek to lengthen the retirement age of those in the Armed Forces of the Philippines from 56 years old to at least 60 years old. They would also undertake committee hearings on proposals that the term of an AFP chief of staff should at least be three years, not for a few days after his appointment of an AFP chief of staff is confirmed by the CA.
