00:00The Office of the Vice President passed a motion to remove a congressman from the office of the Vice President.

00:08The committee explained to the camera that the vice president is a no-show.

00:12The heated discussion of the audience was interrupted by Marisol Abdurrahman.

00:17Why would the members answer that?

00:28We don't have the authority to speak.

00:32Vice President Sara Duterte was absent from the continuation of the deliberations in the camera

00:38in the budget of the Office of the Vice President.

00:40But she was removed earlier by a party-less representative.

00:44You may not like the person. You may not like his presence here.

00:48But you have to respect the office of the vice president.

00:51The answer of the vice president is clear.

00:54Some congressmen were absent from the budget of the OVP.

00:57In particular, the confidential funds of the OVP in 2022.

01:00Marcoleta asked, where will the tradition of giving the OVP to the court of appeal be placed

01:05when it comes to the immediate approval of the budget?

01:09There should be no more questions.

01:11But what happened is a barrage of questions.

01:13That's why I'm asking, why did we do that earlier?

01:17Are we not already respecting a tradition?

01:21The audience was even heated.

01:24Why is it so heated?

01:26Aren't we supposed to listen to you?

01:28We are also members.

01:30It's the same.

01:32And when the hearing continued,

01:34We're not tradition.

01:36Representative Dante Marcoleta motioned

01:39to stop the budget hearing and pass the OVP budget.

01:42But the motion was lost.

01:44The head of the agency must be present.

01:47She is actually insulting the second institution that should scrutinize the budget.

01:53Aside from the absence of the vice president,

01:55no OVP staff attended the hearing.

01:58Before the hearing started,

02:00Vice President Duterte sent a letter this morning to House Speaker Martin Romualdez

02:05to say that he is asking the House Appropriations Committee to pass their budget.

02:10Bratinella, Bratinella to the max.

02:14She doesn't want to be asked.

02:16She avoids being asked.

02:18You didn't ask her.

02:20There's Bratinella, whatever.

02:22That is disrespect to the office of the president, vice president.

02:25What did you ask her?

02:28These questions never happened before.

02:31COA and Budget Departments responded to the questions of the congressmen

02:35including the 53 million pesos spent on the annual rent and use of the 12 satellite offices

02:42that were built by the OVP in 2023.

02:45I think the rent is a bit high.

02:49This location is like a campaign office.

02:56Because it's a place where we can check the votes.

03:01Also, the OVP's relief goods were not distributed

03:07and the unliquidated funds were 65 million pesos.

03:10Until when are they allowed to submit the liquidation of this distribution of welfare goods?

03:16It's not submitted within the time given with the OVP.

03:20We will address it or issue a notice of suspension.

03:24The notice of disallowance was asked by COA to the OVP.

03:28There is no guilt yet.

03:30Until and unless you are able to receive the reply, the answer,

03:36and the explanation of the office of the vice president.

03:40That is correct.

03:41Have you received a copy?

03:45Of the reply?

03:46Yes.

03:47We have not yet replied.

03:50In the end, the termination of the OVP's budget hearing in 2025 was deferred.

03:56We continue to get the attention of Vice President Duterte

03:59not on the issues that are being discussed with him.

04:02Representative Zia Adjong hopes that they will be able to talk about the visa

04:07before discussing the budget of the OVP in 2025.

04:12For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abdurrahman.

04:17For 24 Hours.
