CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, September 9 -- The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) 10 will confer three provinces, two cities and 14 municipalities with the 2015 Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG) on September 10, 2015 in Cagayan de Oro City.

Initiated by the late Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo, SGLG originated from the Seal of Good Housekeeping (SGH) which was launched in 2010.

Originally intended as a campaign for transparency and accountability, SGH evolved into SGLG during the leadership of Secretary Mar Roxas, to provide greater challenge to the local governments in continually innovating good governance practices while providing better services.

SGLG recognizes good performance of provincial, city and municipal governments in three core assessment areas: Good Financial Housekeeping, Disaster Preparedness, Social Protection; and three essential areas: Business Friendliness and Competitiveness, Peace and Order and Environmental Management.

Last year, 98 provinces, cities and municipalities were assessed and validated on-site by different cross-posted teams, in which 19 LGUs emerged as winners. These passers would be entitled to access a financial incentive known as the Performance Challenge Fund (PCF).
