In Re: Adoption of the National Payroll System
On January 17, 2012, the Philippine Supreme Court en banc addressed the proposed National Payroll System from the Bureau of Treasury, as outlined in A.M. No. 11-11-4-SC. While recognizing the positive intentions behind the initiative, the Court expressed significant concerns regarding its potential impact on the judiciary's constitutional fiscal autonomy. The Court emphasized that the implications of including judges and court personnel in this system require further careful analysis. Consequently, the Bureau of Treasury's request for information to facilitate the establishment of the National Payroll System was denied.

NOTICE
Sirs/Mesdames :
Please take notice that the Court en banc issued a Resolution dated January 17, 2012,which reads as follows: CITaSA
"A.M. No. 11-11-4-SC (In Re: Adoption of the National Payroll System).— Acting on the Memorandum dated 03 November 2011 submitted by the Fiscal Management and Budget Office, through the Deputy Clerk of Court and Chief of Office Corazon G. Ferrer-Flores, the Court APPROVES and ADOPTS the recommendations contained therein with respect to the Letter Request dated 13 September 2011 sent by the Bureau of the Treasury.
Although the intentions and goals of the proposed National Payroll System of the Bureau of Treasury are laudable, there are serious concerns regarding the consequences of its introduction to the judiciary, especially considering the constitutional mandate of fiscal autonomy. (Constitution,Art. VIII, Sec. 3) Whether judges, justices and court personnel should be subject to the proposed National Payroll System is an issue that deserves more careful study and deliberation by the parties concerned.
Thus, the request of the Bureau of the Treasury for pertinent information on the details of court personnel for the establishment and adoption of a National Payroll System is DENIED." Brion, J.,on official leave. (adv103)
Very truly yours,
(SGD.) ENRIQUETA E. VIDALClerk of Court
