Tuvera, G.R. No. L-63915, April 24, 1985). Q: What statutes must be published? ANS: The following statutes must be published: 1. Republic Acts of general or local application, like the charter of a city or a law granting naturalization to an individual; 2. Presidential Decrees; 3. Executive Orders in the exercise of delegated legislative power; 4. Private laws, even those naming a public place after a favored individual or exempting him from certain prohibitions or requirements; 5. Circulars of the Monetary Board if they are not meant merely to interpret but to "fill in the details" of the Central Bank Act; and 6. Administrative rules and regulations if their purpose is to enforce or implement existing law (Tanada v. Tuvera, G. R. No. L-63915, December 29, 1986).
