PCA
Gr. No. 110526
Issue: Whether or not, the Philippine Coconut Authority can renounce the power to
regulate implicit in the law creating it.
Held: The Supreme Court declared PCA Resolution No.018-93 null and void. The
Court held that although the constitution enshrines free enterprise as a policy, it
nonetheless reserves to the government the power to intervene whether necessary
to promote the general welfare. Therefore, the petition has been denied.
