Despite a protest by a colleague on the alleged last-minute
“pork” insertions to the P4.1-trillion proposed 2020 national budget, Senate President Vicente Sotto III assured Saturday that there would be no repeat of the delay in the transmittal of the ratified General Appropriations Bill to President Duterte.In an interview over radio DWIZ, Sotto ascertained the government would not be operating on a reenacted budget next year as he said that he might affix his signature on the final GAB version approved by both chambers of Congress last Wednesday.
Lacson earlier flagged at least P16.345-billion worth of pork barrel items allegedly inserted by the House of Representatives during closed-door the bicameral conference committee meetings on the 2020 budget. “Ang pinakamaganda mag-usap kami…and then we can make suggestions. Pero di ko siguro pwedeng i-insist na tulad last year na ‘di ko muna pipirmahan… So far wala naman binibigay reports sa akin na may ginalaw after ratification ,” he added.
