The CBMS also adheres to RA 10173 (Data Privacy Act of 2012) and RA 10625 (Philippine Statistical Act of 2014) to uphold individual privacy rights implementing measures to ensure responsible and secure handling of all collected information.

The Municipal Coordinating Board will oversee the implementation of CBMS in Santa Maria, facilitating necessary requirements and resolving issues that may arise before, during, and after the operations.
