In a meeting between Garcia and the majority of the board members last Friday, July 5, 2019, the officials tackled the steps to reverting the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office , Cebu Provincial Investment and Promotions Office , Provincial Tourism Office and the Cebu Provincial Anti-Drug Abuse Office back to the Governor’s office.Garcia, in a separate interview on Monday, July 8, said the province can save about P186 million if the said departments will be downgraded.
Seventh district Board Member Christopher Baricuatro, the PB’s majority floor leader, said they will have to pass legislation to repeal or amend the ordinances that provided for the creation of the said departments. “Everyday that passes, we are spending, spending a lot on unnecessary departments that can function just as effectively as divisions under the Office of the Governor. As I told our board members, I assure you I am a very hands-on governor and whatever goals we may set for each of these departments, I will see to it that these goals are met even as they will be downgraded into divisions,” Garcia said.
But Garcia said the Capitol will be adhering to the provisions of the Civil Service Commission for the compensation of each of those who will be affected.
