Lim, head of the CFO of the COMELEC in charge of receiving and evaluating the SOCEs of all the candidates recommended and voted to deny the request of LP and Roxas to extend the filing of SOCE extension.
“…the undersigned, in his capacity as commissioner-in-charge of the Campaign Finance Office, respectfully votes to deny the request of the Liberal Party and its presidential candidate Manuel Roxas II, as communicated by Atty. Sardillo,” the document said.
However the commission en banc decided to grant the request of Liberal Party (LP) and its standard bearer, Mar Roxas, to extend the deadline for the submission of statement of contributions and expenditures (SOCE) for the May 2016 polls.
Lim then decided to resign a day after the decision.
“I will tender on Monday,” CFO head Commissioner Christian Robert Lim said in a text message when sought to confirm talk that he had quit his post.
“’Di acceptable ang policy shift (The policy shift was not acceptable),” Lim added but did not elaborate.
