The Department of the Interior and Local Government is still collating reports on poor families who were left out of the first tranche of the Social Amelioration Program.

“Because from the LGUs , it goes to the provinces and then to the regions and then to us in DILG Central,” DILG Undersecretary Jonathan Malaya said in a text message, explaining why it may take a few days before they can come up with the final list.

Officials cannot say when distribution for the second tranche will begin but they had assured that families left out in the initial distribution will be prioritized in the second tranche. “The first tranche SAP is good for 1 month as computed by NEDA/DOF . May pera pa mga tao. So long as we distribute by the first week of June, we’re still on target,” Malaya said.LGUs tasked to distribute cash grants for the month of April are required to submit liquidation reports to the Department of Social Welfare and Development.

“Ang proseso po ay medyo mahaba. Meron pa pong mga dapat i-konsidera na hindi pa nakakapagbigay o tapos ng liquidation process kung kaya't kailangan matapos ito dahil ito ang nakasaad sa batas,” DSWD Undersecretary Rene Paje said in an online briefing on May 20.
