00:00The House Committee on Good Governance and Public Accountability
00:06did not face the officials of the Office of the Vice President
00:09who are being called by congressmen.
00:11One of them, who was confirmed to fly to America,
00:15is Mela Lesmora in Centro ng Balita Live.
00:18Mela.
00:20Joshua was given another chance by the House Committee on Good Governance and Public Accountability
00:26to face the next hearing
00:32because if not, they are expected to be dismissed by the contempt order.
00:38It was passed this morning by the House Committee on Good Governance and Public Accountability
00:47on the continued fond misuse of the Office of the Vice President
00:50The Department of Education, Vice President Sara Duterte, is also leading this.
00:56The confidential funds of the agencies were given in particular
01:00which were used for questionable purposes.
01:03In his opening statement, the Chairwoman of the Committee, Joelle Chua,
01:07stated that they only wanted to see the truth.
01:11They also wanted to form paramilitary police
01:14who will not be able to abuse the funds of the government,
01:17particularly the confidential funds.
01:20The seven officials of the Office of the Vice President are facing a hearing.
01:24However, they did not attend.
01:27Another one of them is Atty. Zuleika Lopez,
01:30Chief of Staff of Vice President Duterte,
01:33who was confirmed to fly to Los Angeles, California last night.
01:37The officials were repeatedly invited but they did not attend
01:41because they did not attend the hearing that was held in aid of legislation.
01:46Instead of being dismissed by the contempt order,
01:48the officials were given a chance by congressmen
01:51to face their next hearing.
01:54Let's listen to the part of the statement earlier of Congressman Chua.
01:59It is clear that it is easy to abuse the confidential funds
02:03if the charges are too broad in their use.
02:08COA has been basically reduced to the ministerial task
02:12of checking whether the documents required to be submitted
02:16with respect to the confidential expenses are complete
02:20without even checking the veracity of the information contained in these documents
02:25compared to the audit of regular funds
02:28where transactions need further substantiation.
02:32This must be addressed to prevent not only leakage of government resources
02:38but to close an avenue for graft and corruption.
02:46At the hearing, Atty. Michael Poa was one of the speakers of Vice President Sara Duterte.
02:53But Joshua, earlier in the hearing, he confirmed that he is no longer connected to the OVP
02:58and he is no longer the speaker of the Vice President. Joshua?
03:02Yes, Mela. When do you expect the committee report,
03:07the house panel, to be completed regarding the issue of humanoid fund misuse?
03:11Joshua, actually, in our interviews with Committee Chair Joel Chua,
03:19that is one of the questions we always ask.
03:21Today, Joshua, we expect that the committee will wrap up
03:26not only on their hearing on fund misuse
03:29but it is clear that since they gave an opportunity to the OVP officials
03:34who are not facing their next hearing,
03:36they still have their next hearing.
03:38This committee report, Joshua, will usually be completed when this committee is wrapped up.
03:45That is one of the things we are waiting for now.
03:47But Joshua, what Committee Chair Joel Chua is saying is that
03:51this committee report will contain all of their findings regarding the investigation
03:56as well as the recommendation to improve the administration of funds
04:01of the government, especially the confidential funds. Joshua?
04:05Alright, thank you very much, Mela Lesmoras.
