Sec. Roy Cimatu has resigned from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), citing health reasons.
Cabinet Sec. Karlo Nograles confirmed this on Friday after a social media post of Pres. Rodrigo Duterte’s letter accepting Cimatu’s resignation.
Environment Usec. Jim Sampulna has been designated as the agency’s officer-in-charge.
Though he initially supported Lopez’s ban on open-pit mining, Cimatu eventually lifted it before Christmas last year, citing the need for economic boost amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
