Original Audit Finding Excerpt
"NHA did not comply with major stipulations in the MOA with the DPWH, resulting in the over and under procurement of housing units and a delay in the target relocation project, contrary to Sections 4(3) and 84(2) of PD No. 1445, Sections 1 and 5.1 of COA Circular No. 94-013 dated December 13, 1994, and certain provisions in the MOA between NHA and DPWH. Also, the number completed units reported by Resettlement and Development Services Department (RDSD) and NCR North Sector Office (NSO) do not reconcile with the number of units charged to the Trust Fund thus, casting doubt on the correctness of the Fund balance as at December 31, 2022."
