The Embroidery and Apparel Control and Inspection Board was created by law to regulate the embroidery and apparel industry, but the law specified who would be appointed to the Board. The Supreme Court found that while Congress can create offices, it cannot specify who will be appointed as that power belongs solely to the President per the Constitution. However, in this case, the department heads who sat on the Board were not truly appointed but rather were ex-officio members designated to represent their departments. Ultimately, the Court affirmed that the appointing power belongs exclusively to the President.

Embroidery & Apparel Control Board- 21 SCRA 336 [1967]
RA 3137 created the Embroidery and Apparel Control and Inspection Board, such law was alleged to be invalid for while the Congress may create an office it cannot specify who shall be appointed therein; the members of the Board can only be appointed by the President as provided by the 1935 Constitution. It is equivalent to a declaration by Congress as to who should be appointed, thereby infringing the constitutional power of the President to make appointments. Did the EACIB bypass the appointing power of the President? Held: No. The Department heads did not appoint the representative. They are merely detailed or designated and thus are only sitting as an ex-officio member. However the SC noted that indeed the appointing power is the exclusive prerogative of the President. Sec 10, Art 7, subsec 3.3 of 1935 Consti: "The President shall nominate and with the consent of the Commission on Appointments, shall appoint the heads of the executive departments and bureaus . . . and all other officers of the Government whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and those whom he maybe authorized by law to appoint; but Congress may by law vest the appointment of inferior officers in the President alone, in the courts, or in the heads of departments."
