00:00 Senator Bong Go nominated the DSWD to choose those who can receive assistance from the government
00:09 in the hearing on the provisions of a law, the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation or AICS.
00:17 Go mentioned the temporary payouts in some places even though the list of beneficiaries has been validated for a long time.
00:24 The cash assistance was only given by the personnel appointed by DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalya
00:31 of the beneficiaries and the double benefit was given.
00:35 Gatchalya admitted that there were delays in the payout due to the problems in the Financial Management Office.
00:42 But he has no plan to delay the distribution of assistance.
00:47 Is this not used in your politics?
00:51 One question for the record. Are you running for the Senate?
00:55 Categorically, I am not using the office for my politics and I categorically state that I am not running for any position this coming election.
