Deputy Majority Leader and Iloilo Rep. Janette Garin has urged the Department of Health (DOH) to follow the correct process
Garin cautioned the DOH after it hired a consultant without undergoing a through search committee, which will be needed to assess the qualifications of the applicant.
“Will it not be a duplication of expertise of the people within the department?” Garin asked DOH Secretary Teodoro Herbosa during the budget deliberations of the agency on Wednesday.
