Who may the Secretary of Finance delegate the appointment authority for Provincial, City and Municipal Treasurers to?

The appointment authority for Provincial, City, and Municipal Treasurers can indeed be delegated by the Secretary of Finance to the Bureau of Local Government Finance (BLGF) Executive Director. This delegation is grounded in the administrative structure specifically aimed at ensuring that local treasury operations align with national policies and regulations, while utilizing the specialized expertise of the BLGF in local finance matters.

The BLGF is responsible for overseeing and providing guidance on local government finance, which makes it well-suited to carry out such appointments effectively. This ensures that individuals appointed to these key treasury positions are qualified and can manage the financial resources of local governments appropriately.

Other options such as the Local Government Council and the Provincial Governor may have various authoritative roles within local governance, but they do not have the specific mandate for the appointment of treasurers as assigned to the Secretary of Finance or delegated to the BLGF. The Secretary of the Interior, while involved in some aspects of local administration, does not have the direct authority to delegate treasury appointments.
