The Office of the Ombudsman has confirmed the lifting of preventive suspension for 23 officials of the National Food Authority (NFA).
This decision comes amid a broader investigation into the alleged disadvantageous sale of rice buffer stocks. Notably, the Ombudsman had earlier ordered preventive suspension for 139 NFA officials as part of the ongoing probe.
However, following a thorough review of the circumstances, the preventive suspension for 23 officials has been revoked.
This move suggests a nuanced approach to the investigation, acknowledging individual circumstances while ensuring accountability within the agency.
