He said, for instance, when there is violence in Lanao, would he wait for a week for the Firearms committee to convene, before acting? Among those who voted for Resolution No. 10777 were newly appointed Commissioners Rey Bulay, George Garcia and Aimee Neri along with Pangarungan. “I have nothing but respect for the valuable work done by all our Commissioners, especially by Commissioner Inting in the CBFSC and all the committees that ensure the conduct of honest, peaceful, and credible elections.”At the start of his term, Chairman Pangarungan showed how important unity is for a collegial body like the Comelec. There was a time, immediately preceding the term of Chairman Benjamin Abalos, that no en banc meeting was held because the en banc members were hopelessly divided.
The latest news from Commissioner George Garcia is that the en banc has deferred action on the resignation request of Inting, which she submitted as “irrevocable”. In a letter sent by COA to the Philippine Sports Commission dated March 31, 2022, state auditors clarified that they “have not issued any Notice of Suspension nor Notice of Disallowance” over the government-funded assistance given to Obiena amounting to P12.34 million between June 2019 until August 2022.
