An audit report showed the Philippine National Police only spent ₱86 million out of its over ₱700 million budget for anti-communist programs in 2020

According to state auditors, the PNP received ₱722.9 million under the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict's funds in 2020, but only ₱240.8 million was obligated or pledged for payment.

Instead of carrying out public bidding, the PNP used the method of shopping which required the agency to submit price quotations for off-the-shelf goods. Critics have questioned the transparency of the anti-insurgency task force's spending, especially as it received billions in budget allocations.
