Comelec to withhold salaries of personnel with unliquidated cash advances

THE Commission on Elections (Comelec) will withhold the salaries and benefits of officials and employees who have unliquidated cash advances following a report from the Commission on Audit that it had P2 billion unliquidated cash advances in 2022.

Comelec Chairman George Erwin Garcia said on Monday that the Commission en banc passed a resolution on the withholding of salaries and benefits of personnel until they have liquidated their cash advances.
