ANGELES CITY -- Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan announced that the City Government of Angeles is one of the recipients of the Seal of Good Financial Housekeeping (GFH) award from the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG).
"This is another proof of the soundness of our financial policies and the transparency of all our transactions. We have continuously and consistently complied with the DILG’s directives on full disclosure policy," Pamintuan said.
The GFH is part of the Local Governance Performance Management System (LGPMS), which is an annual evaluation conducted by the DILG.
Local government units undergo a series of assessments to be able to pass the LGPMS, and those that excel are given the Seal of Good Housekeeping (SHG) award.
Since Pamintuan took over as mayor in 2010, the City Government of Angeles has been an annual recipient of the SHG.
To qualify for the GFH, a local government should exhibit compliance with accounting and auditing standards, rules and regulations, i.e., with an Unqualified or Qualified COA Opinion of the immediately preceding year; as well as Compliance with the Full Disclosure Policy of Local Budget and Finances, Bids and Public Offerings e.g., Annual Budget, Statement of Receipts and Expenditures, Annual Procurement Plan or Procurement List, and Bid Results On Civil Works, Goods and Services and Consulting Services, among others.
Pamintuan credits the award to the efforts of the Local Finance Committee of the City Government.
"The City Treasurer's Office headed by Treasurer Juliet Quinsaat, the Accounting Office headed by City Accountant Willy Tiotuico, the City Budget Officer headed by Fe Corpuz, and the City Assessor's Office led by Engr. Lea Dizon must be congratulated for this award,” Pamintuan said. (AC-CIO) SunStar Pampanga
