PAO to abide by high court's order

PUBLIC Attorney's Office chief Persida Rueda-Acosta said on Thursday that they will comply with the order of the Supreme Court which rejected PAO's request to remove the 'conflict of interest' provision under the Code of Professional Responsibility and Accountability (CPRA).

'In as much as the Supreme Court had already publicly issued a press statement published in its official website denying our request to delete Section 22, Canon III of CPRA, we will hereby comply/adhere to the same,' the top PAO officials said in a statement.
