NEOPHYTE municipal Mayor Dionisio Neil A. Balite of Valencia town has created the Transparency and Accountability Office (TAO) aimed at running after scalawags or those involved in irregular activities while performing their duties in the municipal government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mayor said that TAO is authorized to conduct an investigation and determine personnel responsible or involved in unscrupulous transaction with the government. It is also mandated to determine the acts inimical to the governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also tasked to recommend to the municipal mayor appropriate actions to address whatever findings of the said office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also given wide access of all the records of the municipal government and obtain sworn statement from witnesses when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
