WEBVTT asr-000021 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:30.380 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Supervised agencies, colleagues in the Senate, Senator Aimee, magandang hapon po sa ating lahat. asr-000022 00:10:31.120 --> 00:11:07.500 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Today we will hear the proposed Fiscal Year 2027 budget of the Department of Social Welfare and Development. Sa budget hearing na ito, simple ang prinsipyo natin. Kapag may pamilyang nagugutom, nawawala ng trabaho o kabuhayan, nakakasakit o tinatamaan ng sakuna, dapat may gobyernong sasalo. I’m fully aware that the House-approved GAAB provides P262.757 billion in new appropriations for DSWD, higher than the NEP, although still below the 2026 GAA program level. asr-000023 00:11:07.500 --> 00:11:31.440 Senator Risa Hontiveros: We take note of the adjustments made by our colleagues in the House of Representatives. AICS increases to about 58.1 billion pesos. The Quick Response Fund is restored to 3 billion pesos. The Sustainable Livelihood Program increases to almost 6 billion pesos. But more money must mean better social protection. asr-000024 00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:56.060 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Una, we must protect 4Ps as a rights-based investment in poor families and their children. If families graduate from 4Ps, graduation must mean more than losing a grant. They should have a real pathway to education, skills, employment, livelihood, and continued access to basic services. Hindi graduation ang mawalan ng benepisyo. asr-000025 00:11:57.100 --> 00:11:59.940 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Pangalawa, we must protect our senior citizens. asr-000026 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:11.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: The social pension remains a lifeline for millions of indigent seniors, yet many qualified senior citizens remain on the waiting or remain waiting for assistance. asr-000027 00:12:12.300 --> 00:12:21.800 Senator Risa Hontiveros: At 1,000 pesos a month, we must also keep asking whether the benefit remains adequate given the rising cost of food, medicine, and transportation. asr-000028 00:12:22.700 --> 00:12:27.680 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Pangatlo, AICs must remain a genuine social safety net. asr-000029 00:12:27.680 --> 00:12:30.240 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Ang tulong ay hindi pabor. asr-000030 00:12:31.040 --> 00:12:37.220 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Dapat nakabatay sa pangangailangan, hindi sa kung sino ang kakilala o kung sino ang nag-refer. asr-000031 00:12:37.920 --> 00:12:52.940 Senator Risa Hontiveros: We need stronger controls against duplicate payments, but digitization must not exclude people without bank accounts, without a phone, with poor connectivity, or with incomplete records. asr-000032 00:12:53.420 --> 00:12:57.660 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Pang-apat, we must also prepare for the Super El Niño and other climate shocks. asr-000033 00:12:57.680 --> 00:13:15.340 Senator Risa Hontiveros: The restoration of the QRF is important, but DSWD must be ready before families reach a crisis point with food assistance, emergency cash, cash for work, livelihood support, and coordination with LGUs. asr-000034 00:13:15.340 --> 00:13:26.160 Senator Risa Hontiveros: At the same time, we recognize DSWD's investment in disaster response and rehabilitation programs, such as Project Lawa at Binhi, asr-000035 00:13:26.160 --> 00:13:35.120 Senator Risa Hontiveros: as well as its investment in longer-term climate resilience through the Philippine Community Resilience Project or Panahon ng Pagkilos. asr-000036 00:13:35.780 --> 00:13:40.100 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Emergency response and long-term resilience must work together, asr-000037 00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:46.460 Senator Risa Hontiveros: helping communities survive today's shocks while reducing their vulnerability to future disasters. asr-000038 00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:51.940 Senator Risa Hontiveros: We also welcome the allocation of resources to support vulnerable groups asr-000039 00:13:51.940 --> 00:13:57.040 Senator Risa Hontiveros: through Enhanced Protect Teen, Project Aruga, Project SAFE, asr-000040 00:13:57.680 --> 00:14:01.140 Senator Risa Hontiveros: and the Special Committee on LGBTQIA Plus Affairs, asr-000041 00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:06.540 Senator Risa Hontiveros: programs and initiatives that support adolescent mothers and their families, asr-000042 00:14:07.160 --> 00:14:09.300 Senator Risa Hontiveros: children with disabilities and their caregivers, asr-000043 00:14:10.140 --> 00:14:13.540 Senator Risa Hontiveros: child survivors of online sexual abuse and exploitation, asr-000044 00:14:14.340 --> 00:14:17.260 Senator Risa Hontiveros: and LGBTQIA Plus communities. asr-000045 00:14:17.500 --> 00:14:21.260 Senator Risa Hontiveros: These initiatives remind us that social protection must be inclusive, asr-000046 00:14:21.940 --> 00:14:28.660 Senator Risa Hontiveros: and reach those who are often invisible and whose needs are overlooked in major budget allocations. asr-000047 00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:34.300 Senator Risa Hontiveros: The test of this budget is not simply how DSWD obligates. asr-000048 00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:37.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: An obligation is not yet food on the table. asr-000049 00:14:38.140 --> 00:14:39.580 Senator Risa Hontiveros: It is not yet medicine bought. asr-000050 00:14:40.060 --> 00:14:42.100 Senator Risa Hontiveros: It is not yet a pension received. asr-000051 00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:44.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: It is not yet a livelihood restored. asr-000052 00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:49.860 Senator Risa Hontiveros: It is not yet relief reaching a family in crisis. asr-000053 00:14:50.280 --> 00:14:51.860 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Ang tunay na sukatin, asr-000054 00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:53.180 Senator Risa Hontiveros: ay simple. asr-000055 00:14:54.180 --> 00:15:00.000 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Did government reach people before they reached the breaking point and help them?

That's why asr-002369 01:43:41.860 --> 01:43:43.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: patuloy ho namin sinasabi noon na asr-002370 01:43:43.620 --> 01:43:45.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ibalik na sila sa amin, the function, asr-002371 01:43:45.760 --> 01:43:47.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kasi yung mga tao ng DSWD dati, yun asr-002372 01:43:47.860 --> 01:43:49.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na rin ang ginagawa. So, pag nakita asr-002373 01:43:49.900 --> 01:43:51.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: namin na mag-80, 85 na, asr-002374 01:43:51.740 --> 01:43:53.740 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ahead of time, pinukuntahan na ho natin asr-002375 01:43:53.740 --> 01:43:55.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: sila, pinoproject na natin, asr-002376 01:43:55.580 --> 01:43:57.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: bina-validate na. So, medyo nabago ho asr-002377 01:43:57.820 --> 01:43:59.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: doon. And I think, mahihirapan ho yung asr-002378 01:43:59.620 --> 01:44:01.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: NCSC to cope. Kasi even if you look at their asr-002379 01:44:01.680 --> 01:44:03.700 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: budget proposal, kulang talaga asr-002380 01:44:03.700 --> 01:44:05.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ng tao ho talaga yung NCSC. asr-002381 01:44:06.020 --> 01:44:07.380 Senator Erwin T.

Tulfo: Hindi pa po natatransfer? asr-002388 01:44:19.800 --> 01:44:21.260 Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Yeah. And then, asr-002389 01:44:21.260 --> 01:44:23.320 Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: will it violate section 11 asr-002390 01:44:23.320 --> 01:44:25.140 Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: RA number 11350 asr-002391 01:44:25.140 --> 01:44:27.160 Senator Erwin T.

Tulfo: of certain functions to NCSC? asr-002394 01:44:30.260 --> 01:44:30.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yeah. asr-002395 01:44:31.760 --> 01:44:33.440 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Merong hong executive order asr-002396 01:44:33.440 --> 01:44:35.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na linabas, I think, asr-002397 01:44:35.720 --> 01:44:37.760 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: a year ago, during the last asr-002398 01:44:37.760 --> 01:44:39.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: budget season. Kasi nga, asr-002399 01:44:39.400 --> 01:44:41.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ang bone of contention naman ho noon asr-002400 01:44:41.320 --> 01:44:43.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: is that will require a big chunk of asr-002401 01:44:43.680 --> 01:44:45.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: money to beef up NCSC asr-002402 01:44:45.480 --> 01:44:47.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: to perform the function.

Gatchalian: pagtulong natin sa tao asr-002717 02:01:33.540 --> 02:01:36.140 Senator Sherwin "Win" T.

Gatchalian: sa kanilang kakayahan asr-002856 02:06:09.380 --> 02:06:11.380 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: andyan yung gobyerno asr-002857 02:06:11.380 --> 02:06:13.380 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: para bigyan sila ng tulong asr-002858 02:06:13.380 --> 02:06:16.380 Senator Sherwin "Win" T.

Gatchalian: and before it was about asr-002861 02:06:22.380 --> 02:06:24.380 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 4.1 million household asr-002862 02:06:24.380 --> 02:06:26.380 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: ngayon ang target is about 3.5 asr-002866 02:06:27.520 --> 02:06:29.520 Senator Sherwin "Win" T.

Gatchalian: ano ba ang nakikita natin asr-002868 02:06:35.180 --> 02:06:36.520 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Direksyon ng 4Ps asr-002869 02:06:36.520 --> 02:06:37.860 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and ano ba yung mga asr-002870 02:06:37.860 --> 02:06:41.520 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: naging magagandang asr-002871 02:06:41.520 --> 02:06:43.260 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: bacta ng asr-002872 02:06:43.260 --> 02:06:44.520 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 4Ps asr-002873 02:06:44.520 --> 02:06:45.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Madam Chair. asr-002874 02:06:45.400 --> 02:06:46.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Mt. Sen goes asr-002875 02:06:46.520 --> 02:06:47.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The Sen. is correct asr-002876 02:06:47.520 --> 02:06:48.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nabawasan po pero asr-002877 02:06:48.280 --> 02:06:49.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: just for the record asr-002878 02:06:49.480 --> 02:06:50.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: hindi ho dahil asr-002879 02:06:50.920 --> 02:06:52.180 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: yung programa ay asr-002880 02:06:52.180 --> 02:06:54.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Hindi hamaapekto nyo yung program asr-002881 02:06:54.520 --> 02:06:55.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ang instructo ng ating Pangulo asr-002882 02:06:55.520 --> 02:07:00.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: to make sure na reflective yung numero ng four-piece family sa poverty incidents. asr-002883 02:07:00.860 --> 02:07:04.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So this was the poverty incidents pangaho na 15.5%. asr-002884 02:07:05.100 --> 02:07:08.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Hindi pangaho yung 9% kasi kakalabas lang nung 9%. asr-002885 02:07:08.800 --> 02:07:14.360 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So nung una ho kasi, that number has been pegged for the longest time at 4.4 million families, asr-002886 02:07:14.480 --> 02:07:17.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: no matter kung anuman ang naging poverty incidents. asr-002887 02:07:17.560 --> 02:07:22.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So ang direktiba ng ating Pangulo is to make sure that the list is clean. asr-002888 02:07:22.280 --> 02:07:27.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kasi nung sinimulan to ni Sen Erwin, lumabas lang siya but memorize niya to, asr-002889 02:07:27.980 --> 02:07:29.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: sinimulan niya yung cleaning of the list. asr-002890 02:07:30.700 --> 02:07:35.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So tinuloy ho natin nung pumasok tayo but we did it also through proper case management. asr-002891 02:07:36.320 --> 02:07:44.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ang nangyari ho dito, we hired more nung dumating ho kami na pagbigyan tayo natamihan yung mga case managers natin, asr-002892 02:07:44.440 --> 02:07:45.660 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: yung mga city links natin. asr-002893 02:07:45.840 --> 02:07:50.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: They are the lifeline of the program kasi sila yung nagmamonitor kung pwede na i-exit. asr-002894 02:07:50.420 --> 02:07:52.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So ngayon, kapag i-exit, asr-002895 02:07:52.280 --> 02:07:54.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na-exit na tayo ng 1.77 million. asr-002896 02:07:55.440 --> 02:07:59.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That's from 2022 all the way to 2025. asr-002897 02:08:00.340 --> 02:08:04.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Prior to that, ang na-exit lang sa programa was 15,000 families. asr-002898 02:08:04.460 --> 02:08:06.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So napakalayo na ho nung numero. asr-002899 02:08:06.840 --> 02:08:13.300 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, the updates to the program, number one, the case management has been strengthened. asr-002900 02:08:13.800 --> 02:08:17.700 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: More social workers and development workers doing case management. asr-002901 02:08:18.260 --> 02:08:20.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Para yung mga dapat ma-exit, pwede nang ma-exit. asr-002902 02:08:20.940 --> 02:08:21.820 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pangalawa, asr-002903 02:08:22.280 --> 02:08:26.260 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: yung in-automate rin ho natin, and it's live now, the system is live. asr-002904 02:08:26.420 --> 02:08:30.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Dati-rati ho kasi, there are 14 systems that do not talk to each other. asr-002905 02:08:31.120 --> 02:08:33.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kaya matagal yung grants na napukuha. asr-002906 02:08:33.600 --> 02:08:37.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Right now, the new system that we call 4Ps Forward is already live. asr-002907 02:08:37.600 --> 02:08:40.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It will take full effect by December. asr-002908 02:08:40.740 --> 02:08:42.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Anong kakaiba sa system na to? asr-002909 02:08:42.180 --> 02:08:43.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It's fully integrated. asr-002910 02:08:43.160 --> 02:08:46.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So from the time you register as a beneficiary all the way to payout, asr-002911 02:08:46.860 --> 02:08:49.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: wala na hong download, encode, upload, wala na hong ganon. asr-002912 02:08:50.140 --> 02:08:52.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So we've armed our 14... asr-002913 02:08:52.280 --> 02:09:00.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: 15,000 na mga links, case managers, with an iPad, with a tablet, and a laptop. asr-002914 02:09:00.380 --> 02:09:06.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kasi nga, there's no point in buying a new system if you don't arm them with hardware. asr-002915 02:09:06.680 --> 02:09:07.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So kompleto na ho sila. asr-002916 02:09:08.580 --> 02:09:13.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So the beauty of that is, kung dati-rati nag-aantay ho ang ating mga grantees asr-002917 02:09:13.560 --> 02:09:16.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ng almost 60 days to 75 days to get their grants, asr-002918 02:09:16.960 --> 02:09:21.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: in the new system, makukuha na nila yung health grant nila at rise subsidy nila asr-002919 02:09:21.460 --> 02:09:24.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: within the same month, or 45 days, within 45 days. asr-002920 02:09:25.180 --> 02:09:28.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, also, meron ho itong collateral benefits sa DepEd. asr-002921 02:09:29.160 --> 02:09:31.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The new system is now self-contained. asr-002922 02:09:31.980 --> 02:09:35.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kasi dati, kinukomplain ng DepEd na yung mga guro nila ang gumagawa ng compliance, asr-002923 02:09:36.240 --> 02:09:39.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kaya napaka-volumous nung report doon sa EDUC grant. asr-002924 02:09:39.620 --> 02:09:41.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So nababawasan yung oras nila magturo. asr-002925 02:09:41.960 --> 02:09:45.880 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So by the end of the year, it will be beneficiaries-driven na. asr-002926 02:09:45.940 --> 02:09:48.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Hindi na kami aasa sa mga guro natin na gumawa ng report, asr-002927 02:09:48.920 --> 02:09:50.760 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kundi yung report card na mismo ng mga bata, asr-002928 02:09:51.460 --> 02:09:54.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ng ating mga magulang, during the family development session, asr-002929 02:09:55.180 --> 02:09:58.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: scan, update the record, you get your education grant. asr-002930 02:09:58.620 --> 02:09:59.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Sa health grant, ganun din. asr-002931 02:09:59.860 --> 02:10:04.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: They will have their own booklets na hindi na kami aasa sa mga DOH barangay doctors asr-002932 02:10:04.580 --> 02:10:06.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kasi ang dami na nilang ginagawa. asr-002933 02:10:06.240 --> 02:10:08.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So the system is self-contained and it's more efficient. asr-002934 02:10:09.480 --> 02:10:16.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, we are also coming up with a support program for the child-monitored children. asr-002935 02:10:16.760 --> 02:10:19.740 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nakita natin sa datos, and alam ko, alam to ng Senate President, asr-002936 02:10:19.740 --> 02:10:25.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: pagdating sa comparison ng studies between four-piece and non-four-piece sa basic ed, asr-002937 02:10:26.480 --> 02:10:28.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: pantay, near universal. asr-002938 02:10:28.680 --> 02:10:30.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pagdating sa secondary ed, education, asr-002939 02:10:31.360 --> 02:10:35.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: the four-piece beneficiaries does slightly better than non-four-piece beneficiaries, asr-002940 02:10:36.400 --> 02:10:39.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: pero sabay rin silang bumabagsak pagdating sa tertiary education. asr-002941 02:10:40.240 --> 02:10:45.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ang maganda hong nagpapasalamat kami dahil sa new tertiary amendments to the TES, asr-002942 02:10:45.100 --> 02:10:49.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: e ngayon talagang categorical na sinabi na four-piece not listed. asr-002943 02:10:49.740 --> 02:10:56.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So talagang, we've already embarked on a massive education campaign to our beneficiaries to avail of this service. asr-002944 02:10:56.640 --> 02:11:00.420 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero during my talks with the beneficiaries, marami sa kanila pa rin ang sinasabi, asr-002945 02:11:00.880 --> 02:11:03.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: yung cost of going to school is the problem. asr-002946 02:11:03.780 --> 02:11:07.300 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kasi marami sa kanila na sa mga bundok, so they have to, bundok at isla, asr-002947 02:11:07.840 --> 02:11:10.200 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: or geographically isolated and disadvantaged area, asr-002948 02:11:10.580 --> 02:11:15.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: luluwa sila sa mga capital or city centers para mag-dorm, para mag-aral. asr-002949 02:11:15.160 --> 02:11:19.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So the program has a distinct feature. asr-002950 02:11:19.740 --> 02:11:23.440 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It's called the Enhanced Support Service Intervention. asr-002951 02:11:23.440 --> 02:11:26.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nung dumating ako nandiyan na ho yan, it's enshrined in the guideline. asr-002952 02:11:26.540 --> 02:11:30.880 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Madati, yung pondo na yun, it's part of the budget already, we're not going to ask for more. asr-002953 02:11:30.880 --> 02:11:34.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ginagamit lang yan sa a varied myriad of things. asr-002954 02:11:34.520 --> 02:11:38.180 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: May livelihood, okay naman, merong support, other support. asr-002955 02:11:38.180 --> 02:11:42.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now we've converted it and we're launching it come December. asr-002956 02:11:42.020 --> 02:11:48.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It's called the Tuloy Program, meaning Tuloy Kolehyo, Tuloy Aral at Tuloy Trabaho. asr-002957 02:11:48.220 --> 02:11:56.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So we, consulting with development experts, we will now come up with yung mga monitored children. asr-002958 02:11:56.220 --> 02:12:04.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: If they can show that nag-enroll sila, then we will give them a one-time 10,000 grant na 10,000 assistance para mag-tuloy ng kolehyo. asr-002959 02:12:04.940 --> 02:12:11.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, succeedingly, if they continue to stay in college, then they can show the attendance through the requirements we'll ask for. asr-002960 02:12:11.800 --> 02:12:17.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Tuloy Aral naman, they get additional 5,000 that they can use together with the allowance they get from TES asr-002961 02:12:17.020 --> 02:12:18.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: to support asr-002963 02:12:18.220 --> 02:12:19.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: their course of studying. asr-002964 02:12:20.420 --> 02:12:31.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And last, Tuloy Trabaho is when they do graduate out of college, we give them another one-time grant na 10,000 so that they can embark on career, asr-002965 02:12:32.280 --> 02:12:35.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: meaning to get the requirements, whatever pre-employment requirements they need. asr-002966 02:12:36.360 --> 02:12:41.760 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, in-enhance lang namin yung program to make sure that we lengthen the horizon at matuloy talaga yung pag-aaral nila. asr-002967 02:12:42.140 --> 02:12:48.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, I know I've said a lot, but those are the program enhancements, but if you're looking for the impacts, we can flash asr-002968 02:12:48.020 --> 02:12:49.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: on the screen the impacts. asr-002969 02:12:51.020 --> 02:12:51.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kanina ko ba sinabi? asr-002970 02:12:52.660 --> 02:12:53.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Who's the impacts? asr-002971 02:12:58.940 --> 02:12:59.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Akin yung impact. asr-002972 02:13:01.620 --> 02:13:03.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kanina pala sinabi, hindi mo nalimot. asr-002973 02:13:04.740 --> 02:13:07.000 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Ito ba yung page 9 nyo sa CREX? asr-002974 02:13:07.120 --> 02:13:07.860 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Okay, there we are. asr-002975 02:13:07.900 --> 02:13:14.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, after 18 years, very, very clear na ho yung mga impacts, numerous impact assessments have been done. asr-002976 02:13:14.940 --> 02:13:17.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: First things first, the World Bank has already said, asr-002977 02:13:17.580 --> 02:13:24.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na number one, the four-piece program can be attributed to 2.2% poverty reduction. asr-002978 02:13:25.040 --> 02:13:31.200 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Its cost per, its rate of return is also one of the better ones for the government. asr-002979 02:13:31.960 --> 02:13:32.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ano saan ba yan? asr-002980 02:13:33.040 --> 02:13:33.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yes, sir. asr-002981 02:13:34.140 --> 02:13:34.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Hindi ko nga makita asr-002982 02:13:34.860 --> 02:13:36.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Which page? asr-002983 02:13:36.260 --> 02:13:37.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ... asr-002984 02:13:37.260 --> 02:13:37.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ... asr-002985 02:13:39.200 --> 02:13:40.120 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nasaan ito ba? asr-002986 02:13:40.500 --> 02:13:41.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ... asr-002987 02:13:42.300 --> 02:13:45.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, again, the rate of return is one of the better ones. asr-002988 02:13:45.680 --> 02:13:46.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And then, asr-002989 02:13:47.580 --> 02:13:50.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, these are independent assessments done by so many groups. asr-002990 02:13:51.200 --> 02:13:55.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Also, there's a World Bank study that is already published that says, asr-002991 02:13:55.380 --> 02:14:02.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: number one, our four-piece children compared to our non-four-piece children stay in school longer by almost asr-002992 02:14:02.280 --> 02:14:13.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: 53% of our former youth beneficiaries earn the bachelor's degree versus 31% for non-beneficiaries. asr-002993 02:14:13.740 --> 02:14:17.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, that means they're staying in school and completing their college education. asr-002994 02:14:17.580 --> 02:14:27.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Then, 44% of those na beneficiaries namin end up with permanent jobs, nearly double the non-four-piece na beneficiaries. asr-002995 02:14:28.020 --> 02:14:30.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: 25% lang yun, kami 44%. asr-002996 02:14:30.460 --> 02:14:36.040 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, meaning nakakapagtrabaho sila, so natutuloy na yung pagputol ng intergenerational poverty. asr-002997 02:14:36.640 --> 02:14:44.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And last, they also cited the 55% of our young women, former young four-piece beneficiaries, asr-002998 02:14:44.640 --> 02:14:45.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: achieve permanent employment compared to 33%. asr-002999 02:14:47.580 --> 02:14:52.080 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, nakikita na po natin yung fruition ng programa. asr-003000 02:14:52.720 --> 02:14:59.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Although early, pero 18 years later, nasusukat na natin concretely na nabibreak yung intergenerational poverty. asr-003001 02:15:00.240 --> 02:15:08.760 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Beyond the numbers that I showed kanina, how many thousands graduated, these numbers speak for the program's fruition of breaking intergenerational poverty. asr-003002 02:15:09.340 --> 02:15:24.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Also, in the PSA study, sorry, not the PSA study, the latest FIES of PSA, they cited five things why poverty also went down to 9%. asr-003003 02:15:24.480 --> 02:15:33.840 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: First, in a household, you would get foreign remittance, so yung mga OFW nila nakamag-anak, entrepreneurship, nakapaghanap ng hanap buhay, asr-003004 02:15:35.380 --> 02:15:42.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: the controlled prices dahil inflation was low, but one of the reasons they also cited is cash transfers. asr-003005 02:15:43.640 --> 02:15:49.700 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And a big chunk of that in protecting the households and pulling them out of poverty was cash transfer. asr-003006 02:15:49.700 --> 02:15:53.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And attributable yan to a big chunk sa 4Ps. asr-003007 02:15:54.480 --> 02:15:59.780 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you for those answers. asr-003008 02:16:01.580 --> 02:16:08.140 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Actually, itong program na ito, ang isang programa na pag bumaba ba yung budget, natutuwa ko eh. asr-003009 02:16:08.720 --> 02:16:13.800 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Dahil alam natin na bumaba ba yung bilang ng mahihirap sa ating bansa. asr-003010 02:16:13.800 --> 02:16:20.160 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Of course, malayo pa tayo with 3.5 million poorest of the poor family. asr-003011 02:16:20.780 --> 02:16:24.460 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But tutuwa ko dahil 1.7 million ang... asr-003012 02:16:24.480 --> 02:16:28.300 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: na ilabas natin sa poorest of the poor category. asr-003013 02:16:28.920 --> 02:16:33.460 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Ngayon, my next question is, how do we continue the gains? asr-003014 02:16:35.240 --> 02:16:38.860 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: This is related to what I said earlier, which is El Nino. asr-003015 02:16:39.720 --> 02:16:46.600 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And also, yung last PSA poverty survey was 2025. asr-003016 02:16:47.200 --> 02:16:48.820 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Wala pang gera ng era nun. asr-003017 02:16:49.380 --> 02:16:50.600 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Wala pa tayong El Nino. asr-003018 02:16:51.140 --> 02:16:53.600 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Wala pa tayong 7.5 inflation. asr-003019 02:16:54.480 --> 02:16:58.180 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 2025, actually, mababa ang inflation natin at that time. asr-003020 02:16:58.280 --> 02:17:09.440 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Inflation is a, I would call it, is a poverty, it can cause poverty in our country. asr-003021 02:17:09.800 --> 02:17:21.600 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, how do we maintain yung pababa na trajectory ng poverty reduction natin? asr-003022 02:17:21.600 --> 02:17:23.580 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I'll start off with El Nino. asr-003023 02:17:24.480 --> 02:17:31.700 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And then, I also want to understand anong ginagawa ng department to prepare for this El Nino. asr-003024 02:17:31.700 --> 02:17:35.700 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Kanina sinabi ni Secretary na they're looking at... asr-003025 02:17:35.700 --> 02:17:40.700 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Secretary Kiko Laurela, they're looking at... asr-003026 02:17:44.360 --> 02:17:52.300 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: close to 350,000 affected farmers. asr-003027 02:17:52.960 --> 02:17:53.000 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: No? asr-003028 02:17:53.160 --> 02:17:53.700 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, medyo... asr-003029 02:17:54.480 --> 02:17:55.280 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Malaki-laki yun. asr-003030 02:18:00.920 --> 02:18:03.100 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And, of course, itong affected farmers, asr-003031 02:18:04.200 --> 02:18:07.160 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: mawawalan sila ng trabaho, mawawalan sila ng livelihood. asr-003032 02:18:07.260 --> 02:18:08.680 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, how are we preparing for that? asr-003033 02:18:09.640 --> 02:18:13.040 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Secrex, bago kayo sumagot, gusto lang i-acknowledge ng chair, asr-003034 02:18:13.420 --> 02:18:17.940 Senator Risa Hontiveros: yung presensya ng aming Finance Committee Chair, Senator JV. asr-003035 02:18:18.420 --> 02:18:20.060 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat sa pagdalo ninyo. asr-003036 02:18:20.060 --> 02:18:22.720 Senator Risa Hontiveros: At presensya din ni Senator Bong Go. asr-003037 02:18:23.240 --> 02:18:24.320 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat kayo, Senator. asr-003038 02:18:24.320 --> 02:18:26.100 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Thank you, Senator Bong, for joining us. asr-003039 02:18:26.760 --> 02:18:32.760 Senator Risa Hontiveros: After yung itong first round ni SP, tanongin ko kayo dalawa kung gusto nyo mag-opening remarks. asr-003040 02:18:33.660 --> 02:18:34.320 Senator Risa Hontiveros: When the... asr-003041 02:18:35.020 --> 02:18:41.920 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Ang sabi pala ni Secretary Kiko Laurela is 4 million farmers can be affected at the worst case scenario. asr-003042 02:18:42.600 --> 02:18:46.320 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And we have 10 million workers in the agriculture industry. asr-003043 02:18:47.180 --> 02:18:48.960 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Dahil nga, iba, drought eh. asr-003044 02:18:48.960 --> 02:18:51.960 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Wala silang pwedeng pagtaniman. asr-003045 02:18:53.220 --> 02:18:53.460 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: At... asr-003046 02:18:53.460 --> 02:18:58.920 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Talagang magkakaroon tayo ng widespread unemployment kung at the worst case scenario. asr-003047 02:18:59.100 --> 02:19:00.420 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, two questions. asr-003048 02:19:01.020 --> 02:19:03.760 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: One is, how do we prevent El Nino? asr-003049 02:19:04.420 --> 02:19:08.000 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Or how do we mitigate El Nino in terms of poverty reduction? asr-003050 02:19:08.160 --> 02:19:11.620 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And how are we addressing El Nino this coming next few months? asr-003051 02:19:12.700 --> 02:19:15.120 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Madam Sir, bago ko siguro masagot yung El Nino, asr-003052 02:19:15.120 --> 02:19:19.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: lagay ko muna sa konteksto nung responde namin sa energy emergency. asr-003053 02:19:19.460 --> 02:19:23.360 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kasi yung energy emergency was already detrimental or nanganib na ho sila noon. asr-003054 02:19:23.460 --> 02:19:27.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, when I say sila, yung mga near poor and poor families ho natin, asr-003055 02:19:27.400 --> 02:19:29.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kasama yung mga 4Ps ho natin doon. asr-003056 02:19:30.080 --> 02:19:33.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: We were working closely with the PEDS or one of their fellows, asr-003057 02:19:33.580 --> 02:19:36.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: si Professor Toots Albert, in designing the uplift assistance. asr-003058 02:19:37.320 --> 02:19:42.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: This comes into play kasi we were looking at the diminished na spending power nila asr-003059 02:19:42.000 --> 02:19:45.300 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: of almost around 1,200 to 1,500 pesos. asr-003060 02:19:45.880 --> 02:19:50.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Doon namin na-draw yung 2,000 pesos monthly na ipinamahagi sa kanila. asr-003061 02:19:50.320 --> 02:19:52.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, we embarked on a... asr-003062 02:19:52.340 --> 02:19:53.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Tawag namin, asr-003063 02:19:53.240 --> 02:19:57.980 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: This is an EVH, Emergency Scheme, Vertical Expansion or Horizontal Expansion. asr-003064 02:19:58.340 --> 02:20:01.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ito ho yung rasyonale ng design ng uplift assistance. asr-003065 02:20:01.260 --> 02:20:03.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That's why una, may Group 1 tayo. asr-003066 02:20:03.460 --> 02:20:10.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nakatanggap ang ating mga 4Ps beneficiaries ng one-time top-up na 2,000 pesos last July or August. asr-003067 02:20:11.220 --> 02:20:17.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The second one was Group 2, meaning yung mga near poor or poor na hindi ho bahagi ng 4Ps asr-003068 02:20:17.780 --> 02:20:19.860 DSWD Secretary Rex

--> 02:20:23.200 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yun ho. asr-003071 02:20:23.240 --> 02:20:28.120 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nakakatanggap yun at patuloy nakakatanggap ng 2,000 pesos since July all the way to December. asr-003072 02:20:28.660 --> 02:20:31.660 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Sa aming pag-uusap sa uplift committee at sa direktiba ng ating Pangulo, asr-003073 02:20:31.800 --> 02:20:35.260 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: we are playing it close to the ground na kung humaba yung energy emergency, asr-003074 02:20:35.700 --> 02:20:36.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: e maaring humaba rin to. asr-003075 02:20:37.260 --> 02:20:41.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, for now, ang design niya is still December, but we will look at the situation asr-003076 02:20:41.800 --> 02:20:45.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: and if we're warranted, sinabi naman ang ating Pangulo that we can extend this. asr-003077 02:20:45.380 --> 02:20:49.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, Group 3 is yung low-wage SSS earners. asr-003078 02:20:50.220 --> 02:20:52.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That's 1.5 million families naman. asr-003079 02:20:53.240 --> 02:20:54.420 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Individuals or household. asr-003080 02:20:54.860 --> 02:21:00.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yan naman ho, kinonsider namin sila na vulnerable because their monthly salary credits only amounts to 20,000. asr-003081 02:21:01.220 --> 02:21:07.360 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: In fact, later on, in-expand pa namin all the way to mas mababa na 10,000 pesos monthly salary credit. asr-003082 02:21:07.920 --> 02:21:11.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, Madam Chair, I spoke about this kasi yung target, etong mga grupo na to, asr-003083 02:21:12.220 --> 02:21:15.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: sigurado ko sila rin yung maapektuhan ng Elminio. asr-003084 02:21:15.160 --> 02:21:22.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, right now, we gave protection to 7.5 million families. asr-003085 02:21:22.580 --> 02:21:27.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: A lot of these families will be the same families that will be severely affected by the Elminio drought. asr-003086 02:21:28.320 --> 02:21:33.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Marami, 70% to 85% of our four-piece beneficiaries are farmers. asr-003087 02:21:34.220 --> 02:21:39.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: In fact, a big chunk of Group 2, Group 1, are not in the urban areas. asr-003088 02:21:39.720 --> 02:21:42.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: They're in the municipalities or rural areas. asr-003089 02:21:42.660 --> 02:21:44.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nakikita namin yan when we do the payouts. asr-003090 02:21:45.600 --> 02:21:49.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, moving forward, I want to show our slide. asr-003091 02:21:49.000 --> 02:21:50.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Meron ba tayong presentation ng El Niño? asr-003092 02:21:51.260 --> 02:21:51.660 DSWD

Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ito po, when I got to the department, and alam ko nire-reform rin ito ni Sen. Erwin noon, hindi lang yan natapos. asr-003095 02:22:02.340 --> 02:22:09.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: We have a line item called the Disaster Resilience Response Rehabilitation Program, DRRP. asr-003096 02:22:09.940 --> 02:22:12.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That's a 1.1 billion expenditure in our books. asr-003097 02:22:13.480 --> 02:22:18.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, nung nadatna namin yan, that's a cash-for-work program na yung work program was very loose asr-003098 02:22:18.100 --> 02:22:20.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: in the sense na iba-iba yung pinagagawa sa kanila. asr-003099 02:22:20.940 --> 02:22:21.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, what we did was, asr-003100 02:22:21.660 --> 02:22:24.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: we consulted with the Department of Agriculture, World Food Program, asr-003101 02:22:24.680 --> 02:22:26.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: and we revamped it as early as 2023, asr-003102 02:22:27.020 --> 02:22:28.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na isa, dalawa lang ang ginagawa nila, asr-003103 02:22:28.580 --> 02:22:30.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: two monolithic programs nationwide. asr-003104 02:22:30.980 --> 02:22:33.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It's called LAWA, which are sweeps yun, asr-003105 02:22:33.580 --> 02:22:36.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: yung small water impounding projects. asr-003106 02:22:37.260 --> 02:22:39.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, we asked the A, where are the springs?

Gatchalian: Alright. asr-004388 03:02:46.320 --> 03:02:54.040 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: We'll take note of that kasi nakita ko na-cut yung project na nasabi na ng ating chairman to kanina. asr-004389 03:02:54.060 --> 03:03:00.360 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: That's why we're also evaluating yung mga cuts and also additions, actually. asr-004390 03:03:04.300 --> 03:03:07.900 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Actually, I don't have any more questions, Madam Chairperson. asr-004391 03:03:08.020 --> 03:03:08.340 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you. asr-004392 03:03:08.460 --> 03:03:09.140 Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you for that. asr-004393 03:03:09.700 --> 03:03:10.780 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat din po, SP. asr-004394 03:03:11.260 --> 03:03:15.540 Senator Risa Hontiveros: It looks like we will be ending earlier than expected. asr-004395 03:03:15.540 --> 03:03:23.940 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, pwedeng kung bigyan ng oras yung ating mga CSO representatives, resource persons. asr-004396 03:03:24.060 --> 03:03:32.320 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Nandito, if you'd like to take around two minutes each para i-raise yung major na mga follow-up questions nyo asr-004397 03:03:32.320 --> 03:03:38.280 Senator Risa Hontiveros: at yung maaring maging subject na mga proposed amendments nyo patungo sa plenary. asr-004398 03:03:38.520 --> 03:03:40.100 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, sino pong gustong magsalita? asr-004399 03:03:40.980 --> 03:03:46.540 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Ms. Gina, okay, para sa samahan ng nagkakaisang pamilya ng Pantawid. asr-004400 03:03:47.300 --> 03:03:48.560 Jeana Catacio: Yeah, thank you, Madam Chair. asr-004401 03:03:49.300 --> 03:03:52.060 Jeana Catacio: Sa lahat pong mga nandito, especially at the SWD. asr-004402 03:03:53.180 --> 03:03:53.980 Jeana Catacio: Siyempre po. asr-004403 03:03:54.060 --> 03:03:58.440 Jeana Catacio: So, ang major concern po ng samahan ng nagkakaisang pamilya ng Pantawid is the budget cut asr-004404 03:03:58.440 --> 03:04:01.480 Jeana Catacio: na nangyari po sa ating programa ng 4P. asr-004405 03:04:01.660 --> 03:04:07.440 Jeana Catacio: So, kami po ay may mga observation from 2022 up to the present. asr-004406 03:04:07.900 --> 03:04:11.180 Jeana Catacio: Yung mga budget cut po ay talaga nagkakaroon ng implication sa program. asr-004407 03:04:12.520 --> 03:04:18.360 Jeana Catacio: Of course, talaga kinakong-gratulate din naman namin si Secretary Rex dahil sa mga troubleshooting na ginawa niya asr-004408 03:04:18.360 --> 03:04:23.540 Jeana Catacio: at hearing those enhancements from the program ay talaga pong nagpapasalamat kami sa ano, asr-004409 03:04:23.540 --> 03:04:27.120 Jeana Catacio: nakikita nating direksyon ng pagpapabuti ng programa. asr-004410 03:04:27.580 --> 03:04:36.520 Jeana Catacio: So, balit, meron po kaming hinihiling, Madam Chair, lalong-lalong po sa version ng Senate para po sa budget ng 2027. asr-004411 03:04:36.820 --> 03:04:43.900 Jeana Catacio: So, nung rinisenta po ng ating butihing sekretary yung NEP 2027 doon sa House of Representatives, asr-004412 03:04:44.420 --> 03:04:46.240 Jeana Catacio: medyo nagkaroon po kami ng agam-agam. asr-004413 03:04:46.880 --> 03:04:51.640 Jeana Catacio: Dahil, siyempre, kami po ay nagkaroon ng pulong last October 7 sa PSA asr-004414 03:04:51.640 --> 03:04:52.220 Jeana Catacio: kung saan? asr-004415 03:04:52.220 --> 03:04:59.180 Jeana Catacio: Yung issue po tungkol doon sa mga nasa listahan po, ng listahan ng 3 patungo doon sa CBMS asr-004416 03:04:59.180 --> 03:05:01.580 Jeana Catacio: ay ito po yung klinaro namin sa PSA. asr-004417 03:05:02.000 --> 03:05:10.360 Jeana Catacio: Dahil marami po tayo, may mga bilang pa po tayo ng mga pantawid, supposed to be mga pantawid na hindi po napasama doon sa CBMS asr-004418 03:05:10.360 --> 03:05:20.080 Jeana Catacio: at sila po ay lumalapit sa samahan para po ito ay idulog po sa ating DSWD or sa ating mga mambabatas. asr-004419 03:05:20.080 --> 03:05:21.900 Jeana Catacio: May mga bilang po ito, Madam Chair. asr-004420 03:05:22.220 --> 03:05:24.980 Jeana Catacio: At sila po ay nahingian na po ng mga requirements. asr-004421 03:05:25.580 --> 03:05:32.080 Jeana Catacio: Dahil po ang mga mahihirap nating kababayan ang kumuha po ng tatlong birth certificate para lamang po makapasok sa programa asr-004422 03:05:32.080 --> 03:05:34.060 Jeana Catacio: ay napakalaki pong halaga nito. asr-004423 03:05:34.480 --> 03:05:39.860 Jeana Catacio: Pagkuhan ng marriage contract, pamasahe papunta po sa pagkuhan ng card, certification from school asr-004424 03:05:39.860 --> 03:05:47.420 Jeana Catacio: ay ito po yung ina-address namin kung bakit mahalaga po sa amin na makita yung bilang ng mga na-archive nating mga kababayan. asr-004425 03:05:47.420 --> 03:05:51.180 Jeana Catacio: At syempre, yung problema po ng inclusion-exclusion sa programa asr-004426 03:05:52.220 --> 03:06:01.040 Jeana Catacio: po ito na matugunan sapagkat marami po talaga basis sa qualified naman sila sa RA 11310 ay hindi po sila napapabilang. asr-004427 03:06:01.380 --> 03:06:07.480 Jeana Catacio: At meron po naman mga hindi naman na kwalifikado ay nasa programa po at nabanggit ito ni Secretary kanina. asr-004428 03:06:07.980 --> 03:06:13.900 Jeana Catacio: So ito po yung aming mga inilabi sa iba't ibang ahensya na makakatulong po sa ating mga kababayang mahirap. asr-004429 03:06:13.900 --> 03:06:22.040 Jeana Catacio: Tama po kanina si SB no po at nakakatuwa po na merami pong graduate na mga pantawid. asr-004430 03:06:22.220 --> 03:06:23.720 Jeana Catacio: So ito po yung mga mga household mula po sa programa. asr-004431 03:06:24.140 --> 03:06:31.740 Jeana Catacio: Subalit hindi po ito tumutukoy doon sa mga mga mga kababayan pa natin na mahihirap dahil galing na rin po sa PSA. asr-004432 03:06:32.180 --> 03:06:43.760 Jeana Catacio: Meron pa po tayong mga kababayan na 3.2 million na mga mahihirap at meron po tayong mga waiting list na mga mahihirap din na supposed to be ay mapabilang po sa programa o makapaloob sa programa. asr-004433 03:06:43.960 --> 03:06:51.520 Jeana Catacio: Kung nakikita po natin na ang four-piece program po ay isang instrumento na talaga pong nakakapag-alleviate sa ating mga kababayan. asr-004434 03:06:52.220 --> 03:07:00.240 Jeana Catacio: So doon sa pag-aaral ng World Bank, 2.2 million household po ay nakapagpaangat sa ating mga kababayan mula sa kahirapan. asr-004435 03:07:00.240 --> 03:07:18.740 Jeana Catacio: Nawa po ay marinig po ng ating mga senador, madam chair, senate president, ang aming pong pagdulog na panatilihin ang budget para po doon sa pagpapanatili ng 4.4 million na mga household na makapasok po sa ating pantawid program. asr-004436 03:07:19.100 --> 03:07:21.740 Jeana Catacio: Sapagkat mahalaga po sa amin ang bilang. asr-004437 03:07:22.220 --> 03:07:30.780 Jeana Catacio: Kukunti man ito pero ang tinitignan po natin ay yung mga kabataan na talaga pong ma-address yung kanilang pag-aaral. asr-004438 03:07:30.860 --> 03:07:42.880 Jeana Catacio: At salamat sekretary, nakita namin doon sa inyo pong mga nabanggit kanina na yung tertiary education po ay talagang ito po yung major concern ng ating mga exiting mga pantawid beneficiary. asr-004439 03:07:42.880 --> 03:07:49.880 Jeana Catacio: At sa paunti-unti po sana sa direction ng ating four-piece program sa mga susunod pong taon ay ito po talaga yung matugunan. asr-004440 03:07:49.880 --> 03:07:56.460 Jeana Catacio: So marami po kami mga idinulog na mga recommendation tungkol po sa tertiary education at livelihood. asr-004441 03:07:57.140 --> 03:08:10.800 Jeana Catacio: Ito po sana, itong mga convergence na tulong ng ating mga ahensya, nawa po pag-materialize po ito sa mga susunod na taon para po hindi na po talaga bumalik sa kahirapan yung mga nag-exit na ating mga kababayan. asr-004442 03:08:10.800 --> 03:08:17.560 Jeana Catacio: So tama po, makagraduate lamang po ang isa sa ating mga monitored child sa program at makapag-kolehyo. asr-004443 03:08:17.980 --> 03:08:19.800 Jeana Catacio: Malaking tulong po yan sa mga pamilya. asr-004444 03:08:19.880 --> 03:08:23.880 Jeana Catacio: Sa kanila pong pamilya para po tuluyan po silang makagraduate sa pantawid. asr-004445 03:08:24.540 --> 03:08:39.340 Jeana Catacio: At ito naman po ang ating dream para po sa mga susunod pong taon na marami pa pong four-piece na makagraduate na talaga pong nakuha natin yung objective ng program na sila po ay hindi na magpa-backslide at nakatawid po talaga sa kahirapan. asr-004446 03:08:39.720 --> 03:08:41.620 Jeana Catacio: Maraming salamat sa opportunity, Madam Chair. asr-004447 03:08:42.000 --> 03:08:43.740 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Maraming salamat din po, Ms. Gina. asr-004448 03:08:44.120 --> 03:08:47.980 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Secrex, gusto nyo bang pagunan initially yung mga idinulog na sa... asr-004449 03:08:47.980 --> 03:08:49.840 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Madam Chair, si Jenna lagi yan sa office ko. asr-004450 03:08:49.880 --> 03:08:50.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Suki yan. asr-004451 03:08:51.320 --> 03:08:52.080 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And her group. asr-004452 03:08:52.180 --> 03:08:56.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And they're very helpful in trying to tell me kung ano ho yung nangyayari sa ground. asr-004453 03:08:56.760 --> 03:09:06.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ang gusto ko lang ho una i-assure ang mga nakikinig na mga four-piece na yung pagbawa sa budget this year, hindi ho siya tulad, magiging epekto tulad noon na naghabol tayo. asr-004454 03:09:06.160 --> 03:09:17.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kung matatandaan nyo, di ba meron tayong pagtitipo na nung, I forgot that was 2025, na yung budget cut was severe, nag-worry talaga sila. asr-004455 03:09:17.860 --> 03:09:19.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero ang gusto ko lang i-report naman na... asr-004456 03:09:19.880 --> 03:09:20.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nahabol ho yun. asr-004457 03:09:20.700 --> 03:09:22.660 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Binigyan kami ng augmentation na ibalik yun. asr-004458 03:09:23.080 --> 03:09:25.820 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero syempre yung pangamba, yun yung iniiwasan natin. asr-004459 03:09:26.240 --> 03:09:33.360 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: This year, yung budget cut ho, hindi naman ho [unclear] out of no rational. asr-004460 03:09:33.720 --> 03:09:41.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kundi dahil lumiit na ho yung catchment natin to 3.5 million households or families, ma-excess na ho siya. asr-004461 03:09:41.580 --> 03:09:44.440 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So hindi ho naman ho makakompromise yung programa. asr-004462 03:09:44.740 --> 03:09:45.860 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yun ang ina-assure ko sa kanila. asr-004463 03:09:46.280 --> 03:09:49.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Alam ko saan ang gagaling si Jenna dahil yung original na mga cut nangamba talaga sila. asr-004464 03:09:49.720 --> 03:09:53.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: But yung cut ngayon is brought about by data na 3.5 na lang kami. asr-004465 03:09:53.680 --> 03:09:55.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So talagang niliitan. asr-004466 03:09:55.740 --> 03:10:02.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero tulad rin ang napaliwanag ko kanina, hindi naman magkakaroon ng decline sa quality ng programa. asr-004467 03:10:02.280 --> 03:10:04.100 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Bagamat marami pang enhancements. asr-004468 03:10:04.220 --> 03:10:07.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Katulad nga yung ilo-launch natin ngayon this year na ESSI. asr-004469 03:10:08.600 --> 03:10:10.740 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Alam nila yung ESSI, yun yung kune-kwento ko kanina. asr-004470 03:10:10.900 --> 03:10:13.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Dati yung ESSI kasi marami ho siyang laman. asr-004471 03:10:13.800 --> 03:10:16.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero ngayon, we just focused on the monitored children. asr-004472 03:10:16.820 --> 03:10:18.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So this December, we're launching it. asr-004473 03:10:18.220 --> 03:10:18.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yun yung kune-kwento ko. asr-004474 03:10:19.000 --> 03:10:19.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Tuloy. asr-004475 03:10:19.720 --> 03:10:22.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Tuloy kolehyo, tuloy aral, tuloy trabaho. asr-004476 03:10:22.920 --> 03:10:30.480 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Whether tech voc man yan or academic man yan, tutulungan natin yung kanila mga monitored children. asr-004477 03:10:31.480 --> 03:10:36.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Yun ho ang assurance ko sa ating mga civil society, sa ating group na SNP. asr-004478 03:10:38.480 --> 03:10:41.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Huwag kayong mag-worry na yung budget cut this time hindi arbitrary. asr-004479 03:10:42.140 --> 03:10:45.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kung hindi, this is driven by the data na lumiit ho tayo. asr-004480 03:10:46.000 --> 03:10:47.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Walang magsasuffer sa services. asr-004481 03:10:48.500 --> 03:10:48.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: In fact, asr-004482 03:10:48.940 --> 03:10:51.080 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na-regularize pa yung mga links natin. asr-004483 03:10:51.640 --> 03:10:53.140 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Tapos, makailan lang, kahapon lang, asr-004484 03:10:53.300 --> 03:10:58.320 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: binigyan kami ng balita ng ating BBM na dadagdag pa yung mga SWA o Social Welfare Assistant. asr-004485 03:10:58.920 --> 03:11:00.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, from a ratio of 500, no? asr-004486 03:11:01.100 --> 03:11:01.780 Senator Risa Hontiveros: 1,000. asr-004487 03:11:01.780 --> 03:11:02.900 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, naging 1 is to 500. asr-004488 03:11:03.100 --> 03:11:06.800 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ngayon kasi yung Social Welfare Assistant, from 1 is to 1,000 families, asr-004489 03:11:06.940 --> 03:11:09.220 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: ngayon magiging 1 is to 500 na lang. asr-004490 03:11:09.880 --> 03:11:13.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, ibig sabihin talaga matututukan na mabuti yung case management asr-004491 03:11:13.400 --> 03:11:16.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: para talaga yung karapat dapat lang ang nasa programa asr-004492 03:11:16.160 --> 03:11:18.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: at yung mga pwede na natin pag-graduate. asr-004493 03:11:18.060 --> 03:11:18.740 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ay, pwede. asr-004494 03:11:18.940 --> 03:11:19.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pwede na natin pag-graduate. asr-004495 03:11:20.660 --> 03:11:21.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat, Secrex. asr-004496 03:11:21.580 --> 03:11:24.400 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Siguro, moving forward, papunta sa plenary, asr-004497 03:11:24.880 --> 03:11:27.120 Senator Risa Hontiveros: pwede pa natin i-stretch ng konti. asr-004498 03:11:27.240 --> 03:11:28.900 Senator Risa Hontiveros: I remember nung briefings natin, asr-004499 03:11:28.980 --> 03:11:31.900 Senator Risa Hontiveros: nabanggit nyo na may buffer din kayong pinag-iisipan. asr-004500 03:11:31.980 --> 03:11:33.800 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, baka doon natin pwedeng ma-work out yung asr-004501 03:11:33.800 --> 03:11:36.800 Senator Risa Hontiveros: idinudulog pang balansin ng mga 900,000 families. asr-004502 03:11:36.820 --> 03:11:39.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Madam Chairman, Jenna, we can sit down. asr-004503 03:11:40.360 --> 03:11:44.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: From 450,000, nababa na ho namin yan to 59,000. asr-004504 03:11:45.180 --> 03:11:46.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Nahanap na namin yung mga iba. asr-004505 03:11:46.400 --> 03:11:48.580 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Ang pamamaraan ho niyan is, asr-004506 03:11:48.940 --> 03:11:54.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: from 434,000,

Dr. Liza Martinez: with a disability asr-005886 03:43:56.160 --> 03:43:57.440 Dr. Liza Martinez: but because they have asr-005887 03:43:57.440 --> 03:43:58.300 Dr. Liza Martinez: their own language

asr-005909 03:44:29.480 --> 03:44:30.400 Dr. Liza Martinez: which unfortunately asr-005910 03:44:30.400 --> 03:44:31.960 Dr. Liza Martinez: remain on paper. asr-005911 03:44:32.160 --> 03:44:32.620 Dr. Liza Martinez: For instance, asr-005912 03:44:32.800 --> 03:44:36.500 Dr. Liza Martinez: the 1992 RA 7277 asr-005913 03:44:36.500 --> 03:44:37.560 Dr. Liza Martinez: has a section on asr-005914

asr-005919 03:44:45.040 --> 03:44:46.320 Dr. Liza Martinez: And that has remained asr-005920 03:44:46.320 --> 03:44:49.320 Dr. Liza Martinez: unimplemented since 1992. asr-005921 03:44:49.320 --> 03:44:50.480 Dr. Liza Martinez: The DSWD, asr-005922 03:44:51.020 --> 03:44:51.640 Dr. Liza Martinez: actually issued asr-005923 03:44:51.640 --> 03:44:52.820 Dr. Liza Martinez: an administrative order asr-005924 03:44:52.820 --> 03:44:54.760 Dr. Liza Martinez: in 2003-059 asr-005925 03:44:54.760 --> 03:44:55.620 Dr. Liza Martinez: for the guidelines asr-005926 03:44:55.620 --> 03:44:57.060 Dr. Liza Martinez: for the implementation asr-005927 03:44:57.060 --> 03:44:59.080 Dr. Liza Martinez: of the auxiliary social services asr-005928 03:44:59.080 --> 03:44:59.800 Dr. Liza Martinez: in coordination... asr-005929 03:45:00.000 --> 03:45:16.360 Dr. Liza Martinez: A more recent one is because of the previous 1% earmarked spending of all agencies during the second decade of persons with disabilities lapsed from 2003 to 2012. asr-005930 03:45:17.080 --> 03:45:22.800 Dr. Liza Martinez: So the general provision in the GAA annually has remained but with no more earmarking. asr-005931 03:45:22.800 --> 03:45:31.200 Dr. Liza Martinez: So it's just requiring agencies to have programs and activities for persons with disabilities and older persons. asr-005932 03:45:31.760 --> 03:45:47.800 Dr. Liza Martinez: In fact, there is a Joint Circular DBM-DSWD-NCDA-NCSC Joint Circular No. 1 Series of 2023 on the MEAL, the MEAL, Monitoring and Evaluation of Accountability for Learning. asr-005933 03:45:49.080 --> 03:45:52.800 Dr. Liza Martinez: For and learning from the implementation of Section 12. asr-005934 03:45:52.800 --> 03:46:07.680 Dr. Liza Martinez: So there has been a general provision 36. It was 37 in the succeeding years. It's been still in 2026. asr-005935 03:46:08.040 --> 03:46:21.540 Dr. Liza Martinez: And this is, and we requested actually this week, we asked the DSWD to send us some of the annual, the reports because of this Joint Circular. asr-005936 03:46:21.760 --> 03:46:22.680 Dr. Liza Martinez: And we were surprised. asr-005937 03:46:22.800 --> 03:46:28.920 Dr. Liza Martinez: We were surprised to receive tables showing shelters, facilities, and rehabilitation programs. asr-005938 03:46:29.400 --> 03:46:38.920 Dr. Liza Martinez: And so we were wondering, we weren't quite sure what was in their minds in looking at all of the, what was mandated in the general provision. asr-005939 03:46:40.060 --> 03:46:50.980 Dr. Liza Martinez: In the budget hearing last Monday, and I think Senator, the Honorable Senator Erwin Tufo mentioned this, our DSWD Secretary mentioned in relation to this, asr-005940 03:46:50.980 --> 03:46:52.040 Dr. Liza Martinez: we raised the, asr-005941 03:46:52.800 --> 03:46:56.580 Dr. Liza Martinez: the implemented sections of the Magna Carta. asr-005942 03:46:57.480 --> 03:47:01.060 Dr. Liza Martinez: And regarding particularly the auxiliary social services, asr-005943 03:47:01.060 --> 03:47:11.240 Dr. Liza Martinez: and our good Secretary mentioned that they have already proposed indicators for the SGLC to compel LGUs to comply. asr-005944 03:47:12.780 --> 03:47:16.620 Dr. Liza Martinez: And that has to do with my last point later on. asr-005945 03:47:16.980 --> 03:47:18.220 Dr. Liza Martinez: And also our... asr-005946 03:47:18.220 --> 03:47:19.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: I thought your last point was now. asr-005947 03:47:20.360 --> 03:47:20.880 Dr. Liza Martinez: Okay. asr-005948 03:47:20.880 --> 03:47:21.680 Dr. Liza Martinez: Okay. asr-005949 03:47:22.800 --> 03:47:35.300 Dr. Liza Martinez: N-C-D-A-E-D, Ms. Relova, and because we were asking even in the budget hearings of the House regarding Filipino Sign Language interpreters, asr-005950 03:47:35.400 --> 03:47:46.940 Dr. Liza Martinez: and they mentioned an upcoming or ongoing DSWD Academy training allotted for 1 million four times a year, 45 trainees, and that you already have 80 interpreters on your roster. asr-005951 03:47:47.460 --> 03:47:52.360 Dr. Liza Martinez: However, on the ground, we have received cases of rape victims. asr-005952 03:47:52.360 --> 03:48:05.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: And they're usually women and girls who are unschooled and therefore much more vulnerable who have been advised by the social workers to learn sign language first on their own so that they could have the communication skills. asr-005953 03:48:05.880 --> 03:48:08.200 Dr. Liza Martinez: Essentially, we feel this is highly discriminatory. asr-005954 03:48:08.940 --> 03:48:21.140 Dr. Liza Martinez: And especially so since the Supreme Court has already issued a rule on interpreting, specifically institutionalizing deaf-rely interpreters for unschooled deaf people. asr-005955 03:48:21.560 --> 03:48:22.240 Dr. Liza Martinez: So, asr-005956 03:48:22.360 --> 03:48:28.520 Dr. Liza Martinez: they may not sign in the standard language, but they are highly communicative. asr-005957 03:48:29.240 --> 03:48:37.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: So, we are very disturbed because the incidence of rape and sexual violence is about 10 times higher than the national average. asr-005958 03:48:37.340 --> 03:48:38.620 Dr. Liza Martinez: Last 30 seconds. asr-005959 03:48:41.540 --> 03:48:42.520 Dr. Liza Martinez: Last na po. asr-005960 03:48:42.720 --> 03:48:46.640 Dr. Liza Martinez: Here is just a challenge or food for thought. asr-005961 03:48:47.660 --> 03:48:51.180 Dr. Liza Martinez: We have been talking a lot since Monday about the PWD IDs. asr-005962 03:48:51.180 --> 03:49:09.220 Dr. Liza Martinez: Maybe it is time for us to step back a little and maybe not put too much value on the discounts and the VAT exemption if we can provide a whole of government approach in really providing services to persons with disabilities. asr-005963 03:49:09.220 --> 03:49:20.520 Dr. Liza Martinez: I can imagine that if there is no discount, then the government will have all agencies, not just DSWD na sila ang tinuturo lagi or DILG only. asr-005964 03:49:20.520 --> 03:49:25.560 Dr. Liza Martinez: But all agencies have to provide, make their public services accessible to all. asr-005965 03:49:26.500 --> 03:49:34.200 Dr. Liza Martinez: The reason that disability is such a beast to deal with siguro in governance, it's because it's a highly diverse group. asr-005966 03:49:35.200 --> 03:49:48.060 Dr. Liza Martinez: You're talking about, we have many conceptions of sino ba yung totoong person with a disability and laking debate niyan between the SWDD or HNCDA and so on. asr-005967 03:49:48.060 --> 03:49:49.760 Dr. Liza Martinez: Where are the deaf-blind? asr-005968 03:49:49.760 --> 03:50:02.820 Dr. Liza Martinez: Where are, we don't talk very often about those on the spectrum, those with intellectual disabilities, and those with mental health, those who have episodic and chronic conditions. asr-005969 03:50:02.920 --> 03:50:03.640 Dr. Liza Martinez: You don't see them. asr-005970 03:50:04.880 --> 03:50:06.660 Dr. Liza Martinez: And sometimes they're all just lumped. asr-005971 03:50:06.760 --> 03:50:08.000 Dr. Liza Martinez: O, psychosocial kayo lahat. asr-005972 03:50:09.060 --> 03:50:09.700 Dr. Liza Martinez: Okay. asr-005973 03:50:10.120 --> 03:50:17.320 Dr. Liza Martinez: And our experience with the deaf, it shows that this whole government approach is so critical. asr-005974 03:50:17.320 --> 03:50:19.260 Dr. Liza Martinez: And this is our appeal to the committee. asr-005975 03:50:19.760 --> 03:50:22.620 Dr. Liza Martinez: Let us not just put it all on one agency. asr-005976 03:50:23.320 --> 03:50:33.840 Dr. Liza Martinez: Because for instance, if we look at the 2,000 proposed disability support allowance, 2,000 per month, one interpreting for one hour is already 1,000. asr-005977 03:50:34.500 --> 03:50:38.380 Dr. Liza Martinez: Going to see a developmental pediatrician is at least 5,000. asr-005978 03:50:39.020 --> 03:50:48.820 Dr. Liza Martinez: Taking a grab, just to go from if you're in a wheelchair or you have to carry your child who has severe cerebral palsy, asr-005979 03:50:48.820 --> 03:50:51.180 Dr. Liza Martinez: will take you at least 800 pesos. asr-005980 03:50:51.500 --> 03:50:52.920 Dr. Liza Martinez: Wala ka agad yung 2,000. asr-005981 03:50:57.360 --> 03:51:05.600 Dr. Liza Martinez: There are now 35 deaf people who have been arrested without being read their rights. asr-005982 03:51:05.780 --> 03:51:08.800 Dr. Liza Martinez: They do not know why they're being arrested. asr-005983 03:51:09.720 --> 03:51:13.700 Dr. Liza Martinez: There was an attempt to translate the Miranda rights, asr-005984 03:51:13.700 --> 03:51:17.740 Dr. Liza Martinez: but it was done, unfortunately, without the lack of awareness. asr-005985 03:51:17.860 --> 03:51:18.700 Dr. Liza Martinez: That you have to ask deaf people. asr-005986 03:51:18.820 --> 03:51:21.080 Dr. Liza Martinez: So that they can be understood. asr-005987 03:51:21.260 --> 03:51:23.760 Dr. Liza Martinez: These are mostly deaf people who have never been to school. asr-005988 03:51:24.780 --> 03:51:26.380 Dr. Liza Martinez: The number is growing. asr-005989 03:51:27.360 --> 03:51:31.080 Dr. Liza Martinez: Where are we in the deaf-deaf SDGs? asr-005990 03:51:31.980 --> 03:51:34.360 Dr. Liza Martinez: The time will be up in three years. asr-005991 03:51:34.500 --> 03:51:41.260 Dr. Liza Martinez: We have had 15 years, SDG 1 on the poverty about leaving no one behind. asr-005992 03:51:42.560 --> 03:51:45.440 Dr. Liza Martinez: Persons with disabilities and children are already left behind. asr-005993 03:51:45.500 --> 03:51:48.180 Dr. Liza Martinez: Because there's no data even up until now. asr-005994 03:51:48.820 --> 03:51:54.660 Dr. Liza Martinez: How much is government spending for persons with disabilities, including children with disabilities? asr-005995 03:51:54.660 --> 03:52:01.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: The only study which has been done was in 2013 by Civil Society, the Philippine Coalition on the CRPD. asr-005996 03:52:01.160 --> 03:52:03.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: But as of now, we don't know. asr-005997 03:52:03.160 --> 03:52:05.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: We are invisible. asr-005998 03:52:05.160 --> 03:52:07.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: Okay, this is the final. asr-005999 03:52:07.160 --> 03:52:11.160 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Yes, please, because also Senator Amy would actually like to interject here. asr-006000 03:52:11.160 --> 03:52:13.160 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Okay, so please wrap up, Ms. Liza. asr-006001 03:52:13.160 --> 03:52:17.860 Dr. Liza Martinez: This is a provision which builds on, this is for the deaf, asr-006002 03:52:17.860 --> 03:52:23.080 Dr. Liza Martinez: and the main point, it has several things, we have sent the draft, asr-006003 03:52:23.900 --> 03:52:27.380 Dr. Liza Martinez: is to make persons with disabilities visible. asr-006004 03:52:28.100 --> 03:52:34.340 Dr. Liza Martinez: We are not asking for any appropriation, but we are asking for certain accounting, asr-006005 03:52:34.780 --> 03:52:39.140 Dr. Liza Martinez: you know, governance mechanisms, just so that it can be seen. asr-006006 03:52:39.260 --> 03:52:42.160 Dr. Liza Martinez: Because if you're out of sight, you're out of mind. asr-006007 03:52:42.460 --> 03:52:43.280 Dr. Liza Martinez: That's all. Thank you very much. asr-006008 03:52:43.760 --> 03:52:44.280 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Yes, Madam Chair. asr-006009 03:52:44.280 --> 03:52:45.580 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Thank you very much, Ms. Liza. asr-006010 03:52:45.580 --> 03:52:47.200 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Yes, for the Chair. asr-006011 03:52:47.300 --> 03:52:47.780 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Senator, I'm... asr-006012 03:52:47.860 --> 03:52:57.900 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Dr. Martinez's plea that, in fact, those with severe challenges should actually be provided their own stipend. asr-006013 03:52:57.900 --> 03:53:06.720 Senator Imee R. Marcos: I filed in the last Congress still a disability support fund already and refiled it in 2025 last year. asr-006014 03:53:07.260 --> 03:53:08.820 Senator Imee R. Marcos: But we had discussions. asr-006015 03:53:09.040 --> 03:53:14.780 Senator Imee R. Marcos: It's a far more modest proposition at 500 bucks per month, which is hardly enough, as you said, asr-006016 03:53:14.900 --> 03:53:17.640 Senator Imee R. Marcos: because it's extremely expensive, assistive devices. asr-006017 03:53:17.860 --> 03:53:21.460 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Therapy, et cetera, is already quite onerous. asr-006018 03:53:21.460 --> 03:53:28.060 Senator Imee R. Marcos: And we came to some kind of agreement at that point in time, sa 500 a month lang muna. asr-006019 03:53:28.440 --> 03:53:31.600 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Kasi kailangan mag-identify ka ng funding source. asr-006020 03:53:31.740 --> 03:53:32.860 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Hindi ba, alam ni Chair yun. asr-006021 03:53:33.660 --> 03:53:38.060 Senator Imee R. Marcos: At sana mabuhay ngayon, and I appreciate hearing it from you, asr-006022 03:53:38.200 --> 03:53:40.580 Senator Imee R. Marcos: because nanahimik na yung bilis. asr-006023 03:53:40.700 --> 03:53:42.020 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Sana buhayin natin ulit. asr-006024 03:53:42.460 --> 03:53:46.300 Senator Imee R. Marcos: At tigit sa lahat, very alarming nga ang criminal statistics, asr-006025 03:53:46.460 --> 03:53:47.460 Senator Imee R. Marcos: yung mga crimes against chastity. asr-006026 03:53:47.860 --> 03:53:52.660 Senator Imee R. Marcos: And sexual assault sa ating deaf community. asr-006027 03:53:53.120 --> 03:53:54.840 Senator Imee R. Marcos: And also the blind community. asr-006028 03:53:55.020 --> 03:53:56.860 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Talagang malaking problema yan. asr-006029 03:53:57.320 --> 03:54:01.140 Senator Imee R. Marcos: At kinakailangan talaga pagtuunan ng pansin. asr-006030 03:54:01.440 --> 03:54:04.920 Senator Imee R. Marcos: Pero in the SWD, severely hampered, as are the LGUs, asr-006031 03:54:05.260 --> 03:54:12.640 Senator Imee R. Marcos: for lack na nga of the psychologists, psychiatrists, and others who can identify mental asr-006032 03:54:12.640 --> 03:54:17.640 Senator Imee R. Marcos: and the cover, catch-all, psychosocial neurodivergence, asr-006033 03:54:17.860 --> 03:54:19.920 Senator Imee R. Marcos: divergent, etc., classification. asr-006034 03:54:21.160 --> 03:54:21.980 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat, Sen. Amy. asr-006035 03:54:22.080 --> 03:54:29.100 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Before I ask the Secretary if he'd like to respond initially dun sa inputs ni Ms. Liza, asr-006036 03:54:29.640 --> 03:54:37.380 Senator Risa Hontiveros: gusto kong i-confirm na meron nga ang mga disability support allowances bills filed. asr-006037 03:54:38.460 --> 03:54:44.320 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Yung sa representasyong ito, 2,000 a month din ang proposal sa bill. asr-006038 03:54:44.320 --> 03:54:46.980 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, pagtutulungan na lang namin i-follow up. asr-006039 03:54:47.240 --> 03:54:47.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Muli. asr-006040 03:54:47.520 --> 03:54:51.440 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Muli itong kongreso yung proposals namin iyon. asr-006041 03:54:52.240 --> 03:54:57.560 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Ang ganda po nung proposal about a predictable rights-based social protection. asr-006042 03:54:58.700 --> 03:55:05.580 Senator Risa Hontiveros: And sinare ko rin kay Secrex nung mga briefings namin na gusto ko talaga ma-raise yung profile ng department asr-006043 03:55:05.580 --> 03:55:15.080 Senator Risa Hontiveros: aside from for their essential, urgent, tactical responses, yung long-term strategic trajectory ng department. asr-006044 03:55:15.080 --> 03:55:17.500 Senator Risa Hontiveros: And I think isang magandang possible anchor ito. asr-006045 03:55:17.520 --> 03:55:22.280 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Yung rights-based social protection na ang DSWD ang mag-champion yan. asr-006046 03:55:22.700 --> 03:55:32.920 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, well-noted yung mga specific proposed, possible proposed amendments for 2027 na i-restore to at least 2026 levels asr-006047 03:55:32.920 --> 03:55:35.000 Senator Risa Hontiveros: at o i-adopt yung Tier 2. asr-006048 03:55:35.540 --> 03:55:40.780 Senator Risa Hontiveros: And then yung possible amendment on the child protection system. asr-006049 03:55:42.400 --> 03:55:47.080 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Kaugnay din ito sa kapapasa din naming batang ligtas. asr-006050 03:55:47.520 --> 03:55:48.020 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Law, no? asr-006051 03:55:48.140 --> 03:55:51.340 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Laban nga sa OSAIC, CISAEM, at pati laban sa NVE. asr-006052 03:55:51.700 --> 03:55:54.680 Senator Risa Hontiveros: And then yun na nga po yung disability support allowance. asr-006053 03:55:54.800 --> 03:55:56.600 Senator Risa Hontiveros: So, Secrex, would you like to respond? asr-006054 03:55:56.700 --> 03:55:58.000 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Well-noted, Madam Chair. asr-006055 03:55:58.840 --> 03:56:07.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Actually, Social Watch Philippines is a partner of ours in the cabinet cluster on social development and social protection. asr-006056 03:56:08.120 --> 03:56:10.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, all the points that they raise are well-noted. asr-006057 03:56:10.340 --> 03:56:17.340 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: I just want to put on record na meron na ho tayong mga incubator social protection programs in those areas. asr-006058 03:56:17.520 --> 03:56:18.440 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: At least that you mentioned. asr-006059 03:56:19.160 --> 03:56:24.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: First of all is yung binalik sa house na budget na 25 million for Project Aruga. asr-006060 03:56:24.980 --> 03:56:32.160 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Project Aruga is a pilot project that takes care of the family, the caregivers themselves, as well as the child na may disability. asr-006061 03:56:32.800 --> 03:56:36.840 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, it calls for support in early detection, assessments. asr-006062 03:56:37.620 --> 03:56:40.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Number two, meron ng disability support allowance na TIG to 2,000. asr-006063 03:56:41.440 --> 03:56:43.620 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And then they also get auxiliary services. asr-006064 03:56:43.620 --> 03:56:47.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: We're going to use our AICs to tie up with service providers in the area. asr-006065 03:56:47.520 --> 03:56:53.840 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So that whatever therapy or whatever intervention that they need, especially for children with special needs, asr-006066 03:56:54.240 --> 03:56:59.900 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: can seek help using our guarantee letters ng AICs program, another use of the AICs program. asr-006067 03:57:00.540 --> 03:57:06.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And then it also calls for, it also has a built-in capacity building for family support asr-006068 03:57:06.000 --> 03:57:11.200 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: because it can be taxing for the family of a person with disability on how to cope. asr-006069 03:57:12.260 --> 03:57:14.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: We also have to take care of the family themselves. asr-006070 03:57:14.400 --> 03:57:16.920 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And last, advocacy campaigns. asr-006071 03:57:17.520 --> 03:57:20.820 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: A lot of people are still ignorant, not because they choose to do so, asr-006072 03:57:20.900 --> 03:57:24.440 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: but because of lack of information on what they should and not do, asr-006073 03:57:24.580 --> 03:57:26.380 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: what they should say and what not say, asr-006074 03:57:26.640 --> 03:57:29.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: or how they should refer to people with disabilities. asr-006075 03:57:29.560 --> 03:57:31.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, the whole program is holistic. asr-006076 03:57:31.520 --> 03:57:33.980 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Sa HGAB po, nabalik na ho siya, 25 million. asr-006077 03:57:34.460 --> 03:57:36.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Malit lang ho siya, but it's a good starting point. asr-006078 03:57:37.080 --> 03:57:41.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: These are pilot programs in selected LGUs that we can learn from asr-006079 03:57:41.960 --> 03:57:45.080 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: so that pagka time na may budget na mas malaki, asr-006080 03:57:45.520 --> 03:57:47.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: we can already have the learnings and the impact. asr-006081 03:57:47.520 --> 03:57:49.240 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The assessments and the monitorings. asr-006082 03:57:49.920 --> 03:57:56.000 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pangalawa po, the other fund that was restored was the 25 million fund for Project SAFE, asr-006083 03:57:56.140 --> 03:57:58.420 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: which is an OSAIC advocacy campaign. asr-006084 03:57:59.080 --> 03:58:04.720 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: One, it teaches people or the young people on what to look out for in their families, asr-006085 03:58:04.860 --> 03:58:05.560 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: the red flags. asr-006086 03:58:06.160 --> 03:58:11.640 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pangalawa, it has a strong reporting system and network of care for OSAIC victims. asr-006087 03:58:12.540 --> 03:58:17.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pangatlo, obviously what we do best are healing services in our care facilities. asr-006088 03:58:17.520 --> 03:58:21.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: And pangapat, recovery and reintegration services. asr-006089 03:58:22.160 --> 03:58:25.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: So, it's again a pilot because of the tight fiscal space, asr-006090 03:58:25.100 --> 03:58:27.200 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: but at least nandun na ho siya, the 25 million. asr-006091 03:58:27.820 --> 03:58:35.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, I totally agree with the good professor on restoring sana the attached agency budgets asr-006092 03:58:35.060 --> 03:58:37.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: because these are administrative in nature. asr-006093 03:58:37.520 --> 03:58:39.120 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: As mentioned to the good chairwoman, asr-006094 03:58:39.820 --> 03:58:45.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: marami ho doon are employee-based na compensation na maaring mawala by next year asr-006095 03:58:45.960 --> 03:58:47.500 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: kung hindi ho maibabalik yung mga points. asr-006096 03:58:47.520 --> 03:58:53.540 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, we can do a better job with the implementation of FSL. asr-006097 03:58:54.260 --> 03:58:56.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: We admit that, we admitted that in the House. asr-006098 03:58:58.060 --> 03:59:01.300 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kaming nga mismo sa Departamento, kulang ho kami. asr-006099 03:59:01.780 --> 03:59:05.020 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, what is the concrete step towards the direction that you want? asr-006100 03:59:05.460 --> 03:59:06.600 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The Department has an academy. asr-006101 03:59:06.920 --> 03:59:08.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: It's about to be opened by the end of the year. asr-006102 03:59:08.880 --> 03:59:10.780 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Of course, we're running it off-site now. asr-006103 03:59:11.360 --> 03:59:14.260 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: The academy will work with the Philippine Association of the Deaf asr-006104 03:59:14.260 --> 03:59:17.260 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: to help capacitate our own service providers. asr-006105 03:59:17.520 --> 03:59:19.880 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: As well as LGU service providers asr-006106 03:59:19.880 --> 03:59:23.520 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: by doing these courses inside our academy, these certification programs. asr-006107 03:59:25.440 --> 03:59:28.280 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kung kami nga ho mismo, like I said, we can do a better job, asr-006108 03:59:28.380 --> 03:59:30.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: then admittedly, we should be doing a better job. asr-006109 03:59:32.800 --> 03:59:33.520 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Salamat, Secrex. asr-006110 03:59:34.200 --> 03:59:36.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Can I just wrap up, Madam Chair? asr-006111 03:59:36.960 --> 03:59:37.360 Senator Risa Hontiveros: Yes, of course, please. asr-006112 03:59:37.760 --> 03:59:40.460 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Now, yung 1%, we feel strongly about that. asr-006113 03:59:40.860 --> 03:59:44.680 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That GMC came to life because we wanted to make sure asr-006114 03:59:44.680 --> 03:59:46.880 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na may mga positions in government asr-006115 03:59:46.880 --> 03:59:48.700 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: that are reserved for people with disability. asr-006116 03:59:49.280 --> 03:59:51.400 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Pero tama ho kayo nung sinubmit yung mga plano. asr-006117 03:59:52.100 --> 03:59:54.420 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Sometimes you'd feel that they're haphazardly done. asr-006118 03:59:54.980 --> 03:59:56.820 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: That's why I spoke to Secretary Kim asr-006119 03:59:56.820 --> 03:59:59.960 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: na we're going to do a budget converging. asr-006120 04:00:00.000 --> 04:00:01.940 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: planning, meaning asr-006121 04:00:01.940 --> 04:00:04.380 DSWD

Secretary Rex Gatchalian: Kayo nga nagbanggit kung parang asr-006126 04:00:12.360 --> 04:00:14.060 DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian: feeling nyo kung ano-ano na lang yung nilagay asr-006127 04:00:14.060
