Commission on Appointments

The Commission on Appointments is a government body in the Philippines that reviews and approves appointments made by the President for certain government officials, such as cabinet members, ambassadors, and other high-ranking officials. Its purpose is to ensure that appointees are suitable and qualified for their positions through a thorough vetting process. The Commission is composed of members from the Senate and the House of Representatives, and its approval is necessary for these officials to officially assume their roles, providing a layer of oversight and accountability in the appointment process.
