The Local Government Code also states that those who take over vacant positions in the local government will hold office only for the remaining term of their predecessors. It also says that the appointee “shall come from the same political party as that of the Sanggunian member who caused the vacancy.”
When a governor, mayor, or barangay captain is temporarily incapable of carrying out their duties – whether due to physical or legal reasons – the role is assumed by the vice governor, vice mayor, or the highest-ranking barangay councilor. This does not include the authority to hire or dismiss employees, according to the Local Government Code.
