76 D. Adjudication Services Accomplishment in terms of the NCIP’s exercise of its quasi-judicial powers is measured by the number of cases subject matter of its jurisdiction that has been acted upon, in the course of the proceedings undertaken for these cases. The NCIP acting through the Commission En Banc (CEB) and the various Regional Hearing Offices (RHOs) for the year 2018 have attended to and acted upon at least three hundred fourteen (314) cases, of which seventy-six (76) cases have been resolved, decided, and/or disposed of. For the year 2018, the CEB has resolved, decided, and/or disposed of sixteen (16) cases, whether on appeal or as an original jurisdiction case; on the other hand, the RHOs have resolved, decided, and/or disposed of an aggregate total of forty-seven (47) cases. However, the performance of the NCIP, insofar as its quasi-judicial functions is concerned, must also be measured by the number of actions taken in attending to the various cases, albeit these cases were not resolved, decided, and/or disposed of. For the CEB, it has taken action in at least sixty-five (65) cases, of which sixteen (16) were resolved, decided, and/or disposed of; while, the rest of the forty-nine (49) cases, although not resolved, decided, and/or disposed of by the CEB, although pending resolution at the moment, were heard and discussed in the course of the en banc sessions, and for which the CEB had issued the appropriate orders. On the other hand, while the RHOs have reported that they have resolved, decided, and/or disposed of at least sixty (60) cases, it cannot be said that these resolved, decided, and/or disposed of cases are their only accomplishments, as in the course of the proceedings conducted by them for the other cases in their dockets, they have acted on more cases which are pending in their dockets. Unfortunately, these numerous actions, have not been properly accounted as accomplishments at this time.
