In a text message to reporters on Thursday, August 15, Acosta brushed aside the accusation as"fake news" and threatened to sue those who would use the lawyers' letter which she describe as a"falsified" document.In their letter to the Ombudsman, the lawyers accused Acosta of deliberately overstocking PAO supplies in 2018 to profit.
Under the General Appropriations Act of 2018, stocking should not exceed the two-month requirement of the agency. If an office wants to stock for its needs for a year, it would need the approval of the President.Examination of Annual Procurement Plan for common use supplies showed that despite the existence of stock for Calendar Year 2017, additional purchases were made in CY 2018 resulting in overstocking," the audit report said.
According to the audit report, PAO cited the Dengvaxia cases as justification for overstocking of supplies.n view of the influx of Dengvaxia cases, office supplies such as paper-multi copy long, and ink cartridges must readily be available for use considering the voluminous printing and photocopying of documents relating to the criminal and civil complaints," said PAO, as quoted by auditors.
lol natawa ako ‘to overstock office supplies’ 😂 na-imagine ko: Acosta: ‘guys marami na naman tayong ballpens! kuha lang kayo ha- kahit tatlo pa!’
