The COA in two separate decisions affirmed the notice of disallowance of the pay increases.
When the GSIS officials petitioned for a review, they claimed that its charter exempted it from the coverage of the Salary Standardization Law, as well as the requirement for presidential approval. They also reminded the petitioners that the requirement for presidential approval was a safeguard against misuse of funds.
