G.R. No. 86439 April 13, 1989
FACTS:
ISSUES:
RULING:
1. No. The position of Chairman of CHR is not among the positions mentioned
in the first sentence of Sec. 16 Art 7 of the Constitution, which provides that the
appointments which are to be made with the confirmation of CoA. Rather, it is
within the authority of President, vested upon her by Constitution (2nd sentence
of Sec. 16 Art 7), that she appoint executive officials without confirmation of CoA.
The Commission on Appointments, by the actual exercise of its constitutionally
delimited power to review presidential appointments, cannot create power to
confirm appointments that the Constitution has reserved to the President alone.
