MANILA - Sen.

Risa Hontiveros on Wednesday called for an audit on how the executive branch spent public funds and how special powers were used to boost the government's response to the coronavirus crisis, saying that Congress "surrendered" its power of the purse to the President but has yet to see results.

"We should have established sufficient infrastructure and mustered enough human resources to adequately respond to this health crisis. However, this is clearly not the case," she said. Hontiveros also criticized the Department of Health for purchasing allegedly overpriced personal protective equipment and testing kits.
