00:00But one of the problems you are facing right now is the budget cut for 2025.
00:06So what do you want to happen?
00:11Because from P45 billion, it has become P34 billion approved by the Department of Budget.
00:19So you have a net gap of P14 billion that was spent on your plan.
00:24What will happen if your budget is small for 2025?
00:30My proposal is P49, now it has been reduced to P5.
00:35And therefore, you are right, we lost P14 billion.
00:39From that P14 billion, P3 billion is for the national and local elections and the remaining P11 billion is for the barangay and SK elections.
00:47What did we lose from the P3 billion?
00:50We lost it for the training of our teachers, it was compromised.
00:55After the forms and supplies that we need, it was also compromised.
01:01It's good that we fought across the board.
01:05The increase of the honorary teachers in NLE was allowed for P2,000 each, regardless whether chairman, vice chairman or member.
01:15At the same time, support staff was allowed for each principal and two support staff for each principal of each school.
01:25Now, our problem with the P11 billion that was lost in the barangay and SK elections, the biggest loss there is that P2,000 was removed for the teachers.
01:37So there is no addition for the teachers in the barangay and SK elections in 2025.
01:44Number two, the support staff of each precinct and principals are no longer available.
01:51Therefore, there's no order for the electoral board members to run because there's no such thing.
01:58At the same time, our deployments were sacrificed for the dispatch of the elections.
02:05It's a big loss.
02:08But again, we understand the situation, the fiscal space that we have at the moment and we cannot blame them for the loss of that huge fund.
02:19But there's still a chance for you to run until the bicam.
02:24The proposal has not yet been submitted to the Senate. Maybe it can be fixed or brought back.
02:30You're right Ma'am Malu.
02:31Last week, we faced a very low number of cases. All members of the subcommittee supported the return of the fund of the commission on election.
02:41They are all unanimous. Now, it's the 19th of this month, we will face the Senate and we will continue to ask for the return of the fund that was lost to us.
02:53Because it will be a compromise. We will look for things that we can deliver so that our elections will be well-organized.
03:01But if there's no fund, it will be a compromise.
