QC Gov't Receives Highest Ever COA Rating

The unqualified opinion is the highest audit opinion that COA can render to a government agency, including a local government unit.

Mayor Joy Belmonte said that this recognition is a testament of her vision of good governance. She also expressed deep gratitude to COA and the offices under the local government unit for achieving this highest standard in audit despite being in the middle of a pandemic.

“This is the most important recognition that a local government unit like us can get. This is our vision of good governance for Quezon City and this is a great start since we received this in our first term,” Belmonte said.
