PCA Quezon City, Philippines - The PCA has successfully complied with the enhanced Freedom of Information (FOI) requirements after a validation process done by Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCCO). The compliance to the FOI requirements is one of the criteria for the grant of Performance Based- Bonus (PBB) for Fiscal Year(FY) 2019. PBB is an incentive given to government employees in accordance to their performance and contribution to the accomplishment of their agency’s overall targets and commitments. This is part of the government’s effort to improve transparency and efficiency of government agencies.

The PCA has failed their efforts to be granted the PBB since 2014 which prompted Administrator Benjamin R. Madrigal Jr to give focus on the compliance of the FOI requirements and FOI Chairman Secretary Ruperto Martin M. Andanar of PCOO recently issued the Certificate of Compliance to PCA.
