Among these regions, Region 3 has the most number of LGUs. Region 11 has 54 LGUs, Region 12 has 53 LGUs and Region 3 has 137 LGUs. Isa po itong malinaw na patunay na tayo sa rehiyong ito ay mga ehemplo ng isang de-kalidad at tapat na paglilingkod”, she said.
The Seal of Good Housekeeping for LGUs is in line with the Department's commitment to aggressively scale up interventions to elevate the practice of governance that values transparency, accountability, participation and performance into an institutionalized status. It aims to recognize LGUs with good performance particularly on Sound Fiscal Mangement which refers to the absence of adverse COA finding on financial statements; and Transparency and Accountability which is measured through full compliance to the Full Disclosure Policy.
