Advertising Expenses

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES' BUDGET FOR ADVERTISING EXPENSES IN 2024 INCREASED BY P513.87 MILLION

Ano ang dahilan ng more than half billion increase na ito?

Per GAA (approved)- P531.47 million
Per NEP (proposed)- P17.60 million
Increased by- P513.87 million

Compare this to their budget increase in 2023 that only amounted to P14.38 million.

Anong dahilan? Anong justification?

Increase in 2024- P513.87 million
Increase in 2023- P14.38 million

Kung pagbabasehan po ang COA report in 2022 wala pong breakdown or composition of expenses na nakapaloob sa Advertising Expenses.

Ang Congress (House and Senate) po ay may power of the purse. Sila ang nagbubusisi ng budget ng lahat ng ahensya ng gobyerno. They have the power to appropriate, reduce, augment, and re-align the budget. Lahat ng mga ahensya obligado mag present ng budget proposal at justification sa mga pagtaas ng budget nila sa Kongreso. They can cite people in contempt. Pwede sila magpatawag ng kahit sino.

PERO ang Kongreso po, mukhang special among equals sila. They have:

• no public budget presentation
• no public budget deliberation
• no public budget interpellation
• no questions
• no scrutinization
• no discussion of COA audit issues
• no transparency
• no accountability

Who will SCRUTINIZE the SCRUTINIZERS?

May issue pa sila ng liquidation by certification through their Concurrent Resolution No 10 in 2011.

Pag sila, FREE PASS lang ba? Special?

Nasaan ang translated action of the nice speeches of lawmakers about full transparency and accountability? Judicious spending? Bawat piso ay mahalaga dahil pera ng taumbayan yan?

Why the HYPOCRISY?
