| The twin pronouncements that it is the municipal authorities who are empowered to issue cockpit licenses and that the powers of the Philippine Gamefowl Commission were limited to review and supervision were affirmed in Deang v. Intermediate Appellate Court,[56] Municipality of Malolos v. Libangang Malolos Inc.[57] and Adlawan v. Intermediate Appellate Court.[58] But notably in Cootauco v. Court of Appeals,[59] the Court especially noted that Philippine Gamefowl Commission did indicate that the Commission's "power of review includes the power to disapprove."[60] Interestingly, Justice Cruz, the writer of Philippine Gamefowl Commission, qualified his concurrence in Cootauco "subject to the reservations made in [Philippine Gamefowl Commission] regarding the review powers of the PGC over cockpit licenses issued by city and municipal mayors."[61] | |||||
