00:00 A group in Cabanangbayan has re-issued more than P100 million in confidential funds
00:07 that the Office of the Vice President received last year.
00:11 The group of concerned citizens, a taxpayer in the Supreme Court,
00:15 has requested to declare the transfer of the CONFIFUND OVP from the contingent fund unconstitutional,
00:21 even if the President has a basis for it.
00:24 Former Comelec Chairperson Christian Monson said that there is no confidential fund for the OVP
00:30 in the 2022 General Appropriations Act.
00:34 According to Attorney Ray Paulo Santiago of the Ateneo Human Rights Center,
00:38 this is considered an intrusion into the power of Congress.
00:43 Vice President Sara Duterte responded that this is the right time to discuss this.
00:48 We are asking the Office of the Executive Secretary and Department of Budget and Management to be firm.
00:54 But the Office of the Executive Secretary said that it was approved under the 2022 contingent fund.
01:01 The DBM said that the transfer was a release and not a transfer of funds.
01:06 This is included in the 7 billion pesos contingent fund of the government.
