Overview

The Philippine House Committee on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development, also referred to as the House Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development Committee, is a standing committee of the House of Representatives of the Philippines. As a legislative committee rather than a commercial brand, it functions within the national legislature and is constituted under the House Rules. Its mandate centers on policies and programs for entrepreneurship development, including the promotion of entrepreneurship itself, the establishment and continuing viability and growth of small and medium-scale enterprises, and support to entrepreneurs. The committee's jurisdiction is defined by the House Rules and covers the policy areas that affect the country's MSME sector. It reviews and processes proposed legislation, resolutions, and other matters referred to it that touch on entrepreneurship and small and medium enterprise development. Because it is a standing committee, its membership is drawn from members of the House of Representatives and is reconstituted for each Congress. Committee membership changes with each Congress. As of June 30, 2025, all committee membership positions were vacant until the House convened for its first regular session on July 28, reflecting the transition to the 20th Congress. Historical membership rosters exist for earlier Congresses, including the 18th Congress. The committee operates alongside the other standing committees of the House of Representatives and is part of the broader committee system through which the chamber organizes its legislative work.
