The DOJ opinion disagreed with the proposal of BSP Governor Felipe Medalla to amend its memorandum of agreement with the PSA and its contract with AllCard, Inc. for the personalization of the PhilID card. READ:
Philippine Identification Cards are “legally infirm”—potentially delaying the distribution of the ID cards even further, a legal opinion of the Department of Justice released recently said.

In a five-page legal opinion made public last November 9, Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla disagreed with the BSP’s position that the proposed amendment is not substantial or material, thus it may be allowed under the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Republic Act No. 9184 or The Contract Implementation Guidelines for the Procurement of Goods, Supplies and Materials.
This would enhance photo quality and replace the DOD printers with laser engraving printers to increase the capacity of card personalization. It also approved signing the amended technical specifications indicating monochrome printing, which shall form part of the MOA.
