The NWPC and RTWPB-NCR moved to reconsider the decision, but the CA denied their motion in the resolution promulgated on September 11, 2001,[12] ruling that notwithstanding the pronouncement in Nasipit Lumber Company, Inc. v. National Wages and Productivity Commission[13] to the effect that the NWPC had the power not only to prescribe guidelines to govern wage orders but also to issue exemptions therefrom, Section 2(A) and Section 9(2) of Wage Order No. NCR-07 were invalid due to lack of approval by the NWPC. | |||||

Interpreting the above provision, this Court through Justice Artemio V. Panganiban, in Nasipit Lumber Company, Inc. vs. National Wages and Productivity Commission,[5] held:"The foregoing clearly grants the NWPC, x x x, the power to `prescribe the rules and guidelines' for the determination of minimum wage and productivity measures. x x x, the NWPC has the power not only to prescribe guidelines to govern wage orders, but also to issue exemptions therefrom, x x x. In short, the NWPC lays down the guidelines which the RTWPB implements." |
