MESSAGE

Where I first entered public service eighteen years ago as Municipal Mayor of this town, my colleagues who were also elected in their own capacity as municipal local officials and I had a covenant that all records of official transactions of my administration, whether financial or otherwise will be posted outside the municipal hall in the spirit of transparency and public accountability. It was embodied in my first Memorandum Order. According to author P. F. Jardiniano in his book “Public Accountability” published in 1994, “public accountability, which is the administrative, political, and moral responsibility of public officers to the people in the exercise of their public duties and functions, is embodied in Article XI of the Philippine Constitution to inculcate in the minds of government functionar-ies that they “must at all times be accountable to the people, serve them with utmost respon-sibility, integrity, loyalty and efficiency, act with patriotism and justice, and lead modest lives – that public office is a public trust”. The doctrine: “public office is a public trust” not only traces its roots to the 1987 Con-stitution but also to the many laws passed by Congress aimed at eradicating, if not curbing graft and corruption in the government. One significant law that easily comes to mind is RA 6713, otherwise known as the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees. Section 2 of RA 6713 states that “public officials and employees shall at all times be accountable to the people and shall discharge their duties with utmost responsibility, in-tegrity, competence, and loyalty, act with patriotism and justice, lead modest lives, and up-hold public interest over personal interest”. The government, often labeled with red tape, inefficiency and poor accountability, raised the bar even higher in its pursuit of institutionalizing bureaucratic reforms when Con-gress enacted RA 9485, or the Anti-Red Tape Law. The Anti-Red Tape Law, also known as the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007, essentially rede-fines public service by putting the interest of the public first and foremost as the end goal of government service delivery. Thus, it mandates all government agencies and instrumentali-ties, including local government units, to deliver public service in the most efficient manner for the sake of the convenience of the public. It intends to remove red tape by doing away with cumbersome procedures in the government agencies’ provision of services to the public. RA 9485 seeks to prevent graft and corruption in government and at the same time, im-prove efficiency in government service delivery. It provides a basis for citizens to demand: Integrity;

Accountability; Proper management of public affairs and public property; and The establishment of effective practices like the adoption of simplified or re-

engineered systems and procedures. Section 5 of RA 9485 mandates the re-engineering of systems and procedures by all gov-

ernment agencies to reduce red tape in government services. Cutting red tape minimizes the chances for graft and corruption.

The public in general will benefit from the implementation of RA 9485. Likewise, all government agencies and instrumentalities, including local government units stand to benefit from this law.

Page 4: Gubat Citizens Charter

The benefits to the public or the citizens are the following: Reduction in time and resources spent on transacting with a government agency or

office. Enhanced customer satisfaction

On the part of the government, particularly the LGUs, the benefits are: Reduction in time and resources spent in processing requests/applications from

clients Positive image for the government Integrity and accountability in public service

But the heart and soul of the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007 or ARTA can be found in Sections 1 and 2, Rule IV of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of RA 9485, mandating all govern-ment agencies and instrumentalities, including local government units, to draft a Citizen’s Charter.

The Citizen’s Charter is an official document, a service standard, or a pledge, that com-municates information on the services provided by the concerned government agency to the public. It describes the step-by-step procedure for availing a particular service, and the guar-anteed performance level that they may expect for that service.

Included in the Citizen’s Charter, which shall be in the form of billboards or published materials written either in English, Filipino or in the local dialect, are the following informa-tion:

Vision and Mission of the office or agency Identification of the frontline services offered Clients Step-by-step procedure to obtain a service Officer or employee responsible for each step Maximum time to conclude the process Documents to be presented by the client and why they are needed Amount of fees Procedure for filing complaints Names and contact details of the officials whom clients can file complaints to Allowable period for extension due to unusual circumstances Contact numbers to call for recommendations, inquiries, suggestions as well as

complaints. In compliance with the mandate of RA 9485, LGU Gubat has drafted its own Citizen’s

Charter, taking into consideration the peculiarity of our municipality embodied in its vision and mission of transforming the lives of its constituents through Livelihood, Infrastructure, Food/Family Security, Education/Environmental Protection/Economy.

As we officially launch LGU Gubat’s Citizen’s Charter on July 1, 2009, I implore our citi-zens to support this noble government endeavor. I also enjoin my fellow local government offi-cials and employees to put their hearts and minds in the furtherance of RA 9485, because at the end of the day, our worth as public servants can only be gauged by how we effectively and efficiently delivered government services to our citizens as exemplified by our Performance/Service Pledge: Give/grant Unbiased service to all our clients by Being prompt and Attentive to their needs, through Transparent official transactions.

Gubat is for L.I.F.E! (SGD.) DEOGRACIAS B. RAMOS, JR. Municipal Mayor
