The Office of the Ombudsman should serve as the “model agency” in reporting and liquidating confidential funds, Senate Minority Leader Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III said. | BPinlacINQ
Noting that the Ombudsman has been receiving confidential funds since 2018, Pimentel urged them to be the example for other government agencies, should their requested P51.468-million confidential funds for next year be granted.
“This representation’s appeal is if the Office of the Ombudsman can be the model agency in the reporting and liquidation of the said confidential funds,” he said, speaking in a mix of English and Filipino during the Senate plenary session.
