The Municipal Internal Audit Services Office (MIASO) of LGU San Miguel conducted the Exit Conference for the Baseline Assessment of the Internal Control System (BAICS) of the Municipal Planning and Development Office (MPDO), providing an opportunity to present and discuss the assessment results, clarify audit observations, and validate the findings with the concerned office personnel.

As a vital office of the Local Government Unit, the MPDO plays a significant role in local development planning, coordination, monitoring, and evaluation of municipal programs and projects. Its responsibilities are essential in ensuring that development plans, land-use policies, investment programs, and other planning initiatives are aligned with the municipality’s development priorities and responsive to the needs of the community. Strengthening its internal control system is therefore crucial in promoting reliable planning information, proper documentation, effective coordination among offices, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and the efficient utilization of public resources.

Through this assessment, MIASO reaffirmed its commitment to providing constructive recommendations that will help the MPDO address identified control gaps, improve existing processes, and sustain good internal control practices. The activity also underscored the importance of continuous monitoring, sound risk management, and cooperation between offices in advancing transparency, accountability, good governance, and quality public service delivery.

MIASO extends its sincere appreciation to Sir Darden Demiar and the entire staff of the Municipal Planning and Development Office for their cooperation, active participation, and openness throughout the assessment and exit conference. Your willingness to engage in meaningful discussions and consider opportunities for improvement contributed to a productive exchange of insights and a clearer understanding of the assessment results.

MIASO looks forward to sustaining this partnership with the MPDO in strengthening internal controls, promoting responsible development planning, and supporting the Municipality of San Miguel’s continued pursuit of effective, efficient, and accountable public service.
