President Rodrigo Duterte is expected to submit the latest report on the government's response to COVID-19 this week, highlighting what has been done so far in the fight against the virus.

The SAP is one of the key provisions of the Bayanihan to Heal as One Act, which gave Duterte special budget powers to counter the pandemic.

The report also discussed the status of water and energy supply, saying"the country's supply of power and fuels remains sufficient." "The major grids posted excess capacity over peak demand — Luzon at 17 percent , Visayas at 21 percent , and Mindanao at 29 percent . For the week, the highest peak demand for each grid was observed at 9,724 MW in Luzon , 1,958 MW in Visayas and 1,870 MW in Mindanao ," it said.

It noted the National Power Corporation"reports the continued operation, maintenance, and adequacy of fuel inventory, manpower, transportation, and security of power plants and transmission line systems nationwide."It did note, however, that even with the slight lowering of water levels in Angat reservoir and Ipo Dam , it did not pose any danger as far as supply goes.

The President's report also said the Commission on Higher Education was continuing to process and ensure the release of the Tertiary Education Subsidy to higher education institutions, while the Department of Education was working with the Land Bank of the Philippines to market a lending program which aims to extend assistance to private schools, universities and other learning institutions.
