Departmenr of Trade Secretary Cristina A. Roque has appointed Doris U. Gacho and Engr. Sergie T. Retome as Acting Executive Directors of the Construction Industry Authority of the Philippines (CIAP) and the Philippine Contractors Accreditation Board (PCAB), respectively as part of the ongoing efforts to clean up and revamp both agencies.

The acting officials will manage operations at CIAP and PCAB until permanent appointments are made in line with Civil Service Commission (CSC) rules. Roque, who recently placed both agencies under her direct supervision, is also preparing her recommendations for new PCAB Board members, from which President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. will select the final appointees.

To strengthen oversight, Roque announced the creation of an Oversight and Fact-Finding Management Team within the DTI. The unit will coordinate investigations, responses, communications, and recovery measures tied to current PCAB licensing issues and other concerns.

“This mechanism will safeguard public interest, ensure accountability, and maintain stakeholder confidence,” the Trade Chief stressed.
