Question Approval of Leave

LA Meryes created the topic: Approval of Leave
The Local Government Code provides in Section 47 that

"Approval of Leaves of Absence. – (2) Leaves of absence of vice-governor or a city or municipal vice-mayor shall be approved by the local chief executive concerned: Provided, That the leaves of absence of the members of the sanggunian and its employees shall be approved by the vice-governor or city or municipal vice-mayor concerned;" (emphasis mine).

However in our LGU leaves of absence of all employees including those under the Sanggunian are approved by the Local Chief Executive. Is there no legal problem with this? Can the Vice-LCE claim the authority to approve leaves of absence of employees under the Sanggunian as per above mentioned provision of the LGC?

Thanks a lot.
