Department Heads are entitled to Representation and Transportation (RATA). The TA is supposed to cover transportation expenses of the official in the performance of his/her functions. Thus, the official concerned can use the TA to cover the cost of fuel used in his/her personal motor vehicle.
No, they cannot. They already have their Transportation Allowance (TA).
