COA report misleading – OPAPP

THE Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (Opapp) branded as “misleading” the Commission on Audit (COA) report about the agency’s questionable use of rental vehicles in 2014 amounting to more than P45 million.

“If you look at the report, it has a lot of observations. But, what is important is the recommendation of the resident auditor at the end of the report, which is to secure the approval of the Department of Budget and Management for the vehicle rentals. This we have complied with and received DBM approval on September 15, 2015,” OPAPP Undersecretary Luisito G. Montalbo said.
