Section 30 of RA 5527 contains which clause?

• A. Separability Clause
• B. Repealing Clause
• C. Declaration of Policy
• D. General Provisions

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is the separability of provisions — a clause that keeps the rest of the law valid if one part is found unconstitutional. In RA 5527, Section 30 states this Separability Clause, meaning that even if a particular provision of the Act is struck down by a court, the remaining provisions still stand and the regulatory framework for medical technology practice continues to operate. This protects the overall purpose of the law and prevents a single problematic clause from undermining the entire statute. A Repealing Clause would address the repeal of prior laws, not the validity of the current law’s provisions. A Declaration of Policy states the aims or purposes of the act, and General Provisions cover miscellaneous rules and definitions, not the persistence of the rest of the law if part is invalid.
