Tacata, a retired BSP security officer, said he had not received sufficient answers to his questions about the series of salary increases benefiting BSP officials for years now, that was why he was asking the Senate to inquire into this. ADVERTISEMENTInstead of filing a case in court, he expressed preference for a Senate hearing, where he could hear the side of BSP officials and raise questions himself, through the chair of the investigating committee. Rank and file employees were not exempted, though, he said. He said in August 2006 he wrote a letter to the Monetary Board to protest the misapplication of the Supreme Court ruling, but then Deputy BSP Gov. Since then until last year, he wrote letters and sought meetings with BSP officials to resolve the issue of “inequity” once and for all but without success.
