RA 9165 was approved on which date?

• A. May 29/30, 2002
• B. May 30, 2002
• C. May 28, 2002
• D. April 30, 2002

Answer: (A)

The date of approval for a Republic Act reflects when the bill was approved by Congress and signed into law by the President. For RA 9165, the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, the legislative body approved the bill on May 29, 2002, and the President signed it on May 30, 2002. That sequence is why the date is presented as May 29/30, 2002—covering both the approval and the signing. The other dates don’t align with the actual timeline, since May 28 would be before approval, May 30 alone would miss the initial approval, and April 30 is well outside the period.
