So I reviewed a pdf file I downloaded from the senate website on the various committees, following this entry. Here's what the document says on the jurisdiction of the Committee on Trade and Comerce:

All matters relating to domestic and foreign trade and private corporations; patents, copyrights, trade names and trademarks; standards, weights, measures and designs; quality control; control and stabilization of prices of commodities; consumer protection; handicraft and cottage industries; and marketing of commodities.

Shall we then argue that the local film industry is a "handicraft and cottage industry" alongside farming oyster and shiitake mushrooms? Or are they a better fit within the jurisdiction of the Committee on Education, Arts and Culture, which deals with, among others, "the preservation, enrichment and evolution of Filipino arts and culture." I must be reading this the wrong way.
