MANILA, Philippines — The Department of the Interior and Local Government reminded all incumbent governors and mayors of local government units to organize their respective Local Governance Transition Team by April 7 for an effective transition and turnover of responsibilities ahead of the 2022 polls.

 

In a statement sent to reporters Wednesday morning, DILG Secretary Eduardo Año said that all LGU assets, records, and documents, among others, must be turned over transparently and efficiently to a new set of elected local officials "for the seamless continuance of ongoing programs for the people."

 

"Public service must not be hampered amid a possible transition of leadership in the LGUs. We remind our local chief executives that as early as now they should be forming their LGTTs to guarantee the continuity of public service and ensure that all assets are well accounted for upon the transition," he said in mixed Filipino and English.
