tv MANILA - Government must allow the public to participate in budget deliberations during the preparation of its proposal and not during its legislation, a group said Tuesday.

Allowing the public to be involved in budget deliberations is "not an entirely new development," according to Zy-za Suzara, executive director of the Institute for Leadership, Empowerment and Democracy . "If there’s real intent to allow citizens to participate and propose their own projects that would be best done during budget preparation process where there’s more time to deliberate on it, more time for government agencies to actually consult CSOs ," she told ANC."It makes one wonder how meaningful and significant the process of participation in budget deliberation will be," she said.
