[ EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 450, November 05, 1961 ]
ABOLISHING THE INVESTIGATING COMMITTEES ON VETERANS’ PENSION
WHEREAS, Executive Order No. 478 dated December 12, 1951, creating an Investigating Committee on Veterans’ Pension in each municipality and chartered city, was issued for the purpose of facilitating investigations of applicants for veterans’ pension and their witnesses with a view to determining their rights to the benefits provided under Commonwealth Act No. 605, as amended by Republic Act No. 539; and
WHEREAS, with the creation of the Philippine Veterans Administration (PVA) under Republic Act No. 2664, which has eleven (11) regional offices strategically located in different parts of the country, there is no more need for said investigating committees as the PVA regional offices can take over their duties in furtherance of the objective of Republic Act No. 2664 to consolidate in one office all functions pertaining to veterans affairs.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Carlos P. Garcia, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby abolish the Investigating Committees on Veterans’ Pension created by Executive Order No. 487, dated December 12, 1951, which is hereby revoked.
Done in the City of Manila, this 5th day of November, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and sixty-one, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the sixteenth.
By the President:
(SGD.) EDILBERTO B. GALLARES
Assistant Executive Secretary
