The Commission on Audit (CoA) has denied a petition for review by Bohol Gov. Edgardo Chatto of its regional office’s ruling disallowing the P2.4-million payment for calendars for filing the appeal beyond the allowable time under the law. The CoA’s Regional Office (RO) No. The CoA said even on the merits, the petition would still be denied because the procurement was contrary to various laws. It added that the CoA regional office ND is final and executory.
