Agency budget summary
FY2027 agency budget proposals: The public proceedings state neither a FY2027 National Expenditure Program (NEP) allocation nor an original agency request for the National Security Council (NSC) or the National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA). Before either agency presented publicly, the committee agreed to enter executive session.
Executive-session outcome
Executive-session outcome: Senator Panfilo M. Lacson, committee chair, opened the hearing and welcomed the National Security Council (NSC) and the National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA). An unidentified requester sought an executive session on behalf of both agencies. Lacson asked whether any panel member objected; hearing none, he approved the request and directed that the room be prepared.
The committee secretary explained that the livestream would be suspended and people not participating in the executive session should step out briefly.
