The OVP sought augmentation of the line item on financial assistance, supposedly for the operations of seven OVP satellite offices. Duterte said she needed an additionalfor the satellite offices, since what it had on hand – P150 million – wasn’t enough.
Overall, the DBM, upon the OP’s approval, gave the OVP an additional P221.424 million, more than half of Duterte’s requested P403.46 million.One of the main issues is the confusion on how Duterte’s OVP suddenly had confidential funds in 2022.
