Bering has recently confirmed that the House of Representative will be releasing soon the (SALN) or the Statements of (–foul word(s) removed–)ets, Liabilities and Net Worth for each congressman in the 15th congress.

He said that the deadline of the filing of SALN will be on April 30 thus it is expected that the report will be out soon. For accurate computation the division is checking every data and mathematical equations.
