Judiciary’s SALN under fire |
|
Justices, judges not baring Statements of Assets,
Liabilities and Networth for 20 years
|
|
By Jomar Canlas, Reporter
The judiciary plans to reexamine its existing ruling of not
disclosing to the public the Statements of Assets, Liabilities
andNetworth (SALN) of justices and judges. The ruling, contained in
a resolution of the Supreme Court, has been enforced for 20 years.
The plan, according to a source of The Manila
Times, apparently was a reaction to a recent series of reports made
by the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (PCIJ) on
President Gloria Arroyo’s SALN, which the center said were
deficient. It also apparently was the reply to a PCIJ request to the
High Tribunal that the justices and judges do so.
