"It's worth looking into and then kasi kung hindi aksyunan ng DepEd 'yan, pwede na aksyunan ng Blue Ribbon 'yan," Senate Minority Leader Aquilino"Koko" Pimentel III said. Voltaire F. Domingo/ Senate PRIB/ File photo
The lawmaker believes that the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee already has the "expertise" to investigate cases of overpricing because it has already concluded its probe into the outdated and pricey laptops procured by the same department.He explained that the Blue Ribbon panel pursued the investigation into the overpriced DepEd laptops because they "felt" that there was lack of action on the part of the Executive branch.
Other details such as the DSLR camera’s serial number, acquisition date, and accountable officer were on the sticker.
