City Mayor Dan Lim said he will publish details of his expenses on a quarterly basis following allegations of abuse of discretion and graft and corruption by former OIC governor Victor dela Serna.

The mayor said the figures claimed by Dela Serna were overstated.

Dela Serna alleged that Lim spent some P97 million in fiscal year 2006, which is about one-third of the city government's budget for that year.

The amount however included expenses of the General Services Office (GSO) of about P39 million, which was not yet headed at that year by the mayor's executive assistant Mark Leo Monton.

Lim hinted that the actual figure of expenses charged to his office in 2006 was about 80% lower than what Dela Serna had alleged of P58 million.
