00:00Lawmakers from both houses of Congress are agreed a reenacted budget is a legislative taboo,

00:06especially if the budget to be reinstated is tagged as the most corrupt and graft-ridden ever.

00:12Our Luisa Erisbe has more on censors of the 20th Congress

00:15vowing a non-repeat of the 2025 budget and its double-huami repercussions.

00:23There will be no reenactment of the 2025 budget.

00:27This is what the Senate clarified upon today's resumption of session

00:31for the period of amendments on the proposed 2026 budget.

00:35According to Senate President Vicente Salto III,

00:38he is confident the budget can be passed into law before year's end

00:42because they will never allow the reenactment of the most corrupt budget in Congress history.

00:48We will not have to delay because we will be able to reenact the budget.

00:54This is also what Senate President pro-temporary Panfil Laxun said.

01:04According to him, they are exhausting all efforts and working overtime to finish the budget.

01:09Ah, wala. Hindi, hindi mangyayari.

01:12Manaboy yung reenacted, sir.

01:13We'll try to finish the individual amendments and approval of second reading today.

01:20Yun ang ping-usapan namin ni SP.

01:21Maski abutin kami ng hanggang mamayang galing.

01:24Unless bumagyo ng malakas na hindi kami makapag-buy kamo.

01:29After the period of amendments, they plan to approve the budget on second reading today

01:33and perhaps on third reading by Friday.

01:36After this will be the three-day bicameral conference.

01:40Kumapagamaya, today's Tuesday, easily on Friday, we can approve it on third reading.

01:47Para pag-print over the weekend, next week, pwede mong schedule ng bicameral.

01:51But the minority bloc of the Senate wants clarifications first on some items of the budget,

01:57especially on the unprogrammed funds.

02:00Minority leader, Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano, wants a clear and transparent list of programs

02:06or line items for the unprogrammed funds.

02:09Not only the stigma, but also yung sa flood control.

02:14And then also, itong unprogrammed, medyo ano to eh, kailangan talagang himayin.

02:21This is another animal eh.

02:23Until we figure this out, may magiging lamat pa rin tong budget na to.

02:28He insists that if the Senate really wants transparency,

02:32it should be given fully to the Filipino people.

02:35Senator Laxon said they will assure that the Senate version of the budget will be free of red flags,

02:40especially those from the budget of the Department of Public Works and Highways, or DPWH.

02:46Ngayon, mag-aamid kami eh.

02:49Mababaliwala na yon, yung mga allocables.

02:51Wala na.

02:54Masipag yung aming finance chairman.

02:56Nakita niya rin eh.

02:58So sa committee, may naman sa alam.

02:59I'm sure mawala na yon eh.

03:01May mga individual pa.

03:02Ako may mga papatilit ako eh.

03:04The Senate's target is for President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

03:08to sign the budget on December 29.
