Defining the News

Vice President Sara Duterte said she will not seek confidential funds for next year, under the government’s P6.35 trillion national budget for 2025.

During the plenary deliberations on the 2024 proposed budget of the Department of Education , Senator Pia Cayetano said that Duterte also had let go of the agency’s P150 million confidential funds. Earlier, Duterte has asked the Supreme Court to dismiss the three petitions assailing the constitutionality of the transfer of the amount of P125 million by the Office of the President to the Office of the Vice President for use as confidential funds in December 2022.

According to Mendoza, the petitions do not allege that Duterte exercised “grave abuse of discretion, much less any discretion” in the release of the Contingent Funds for use as confidential funds of the OVP.
