So using savings is illegal? Eh maliit lang na part napunta sa mga legislators, majority of the savings (DAP) went to the agencies.

savings itself is legal.. walang illegal doon.. i think ang question here.. is does the Executive have the power to realign savings to other disbursements without letting Congress know of it beforehand?

in the past.. malinaw na kapag di napasa ang budget... previous years budget stand... so kung di napasa ang 2012 budget.. 2011 budget allocations will apply for 2012... or until the 2012 budget is passed... malinaw yan.. and during the last few years of Arroyo administration.. lagi nga reenacted ang previous year budget.. di natatapos ang budget on time...

pero sa Aquino admin.. ang aga matapos ang budget.. trina trabaho talaga.. yun pala may DAP hehe..

sa kabilang banda... ang di pa malinaw (at least sa akin.. ewan ko sa inyo)... kung pwede ba talaga... na EXECUTIVE.. without any enabling law (whether specific law for that specific purpose.. or general law)... can executive realign the savings and use it for a different purpose?

malinaw na savings in executive go back to treasury.. pero by end of year ano mangyayari sa mga savings na yun.. di ba it makes sense na isama sa next year budget? then sa next year budget.. naka line up mga allocations... so dapat.. pati yung savings from previous years... may provisional allocation... possible by order of priority depending on the amount of savings...

i think yun ang point ni Joker... kailangan may specific law listing and providing for the allocation of a fixed amount (which is the savings) to particular projects , etc... sa nangyari with DAP... okay may savings... pero without informing congress or the public officially... na may savings... nilabas agad nila yung pera para panggastos.. well in the traditional sense... all the money that government should spend should be programmed.. kaya nga may national budget eh... so dapat.. savings should also be budgeted and allocated properly kung saan mapupunta..

which in this case sa DAP.. it seems... hindi naka program BEFOREHAND yung pagpupuntahan ng savings... ang nangyari.. since they had funds to disburse... nag allocate na lang agad... hindi dumaan sa traditional process... which is through congress...


at least... yan ang analysis ko sa issue....
