Reinstated ERC chief seeks immunity from suit for 5 execs while in office

Quick Summary:

REINSTATED Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) chief Monalisa Dimalanta proposed that all five commissioners be granted immunity from suit similar to what is being applied to  the Philippine Competition Commission (PCC).

Another possible consideration when amending Epira is to allow the ERC chairperson to address urgent cases without the need to convene the entire commission.

Dimalanta said in an interview that this is one of her four realizations over the past 51 days when she was suspended by the Office of the Ombudsman for alleged grave misconduct, grave abuse of authority, and conduct prejudicial to public service.
