DBM to pre-select vetted infra projects for legislators

THE Department of Budget and Management (DBM) is working on creating a “menu” of ready-to-implement infrastructure projects for legislators to include in the budget, Secretary Amenah F. Pangandaman said.

“We are going to have a menu for our legislators. If they want to add to the budget or if they see something from our list of projects, for example, flood control, farm-to-market roads, school building programs, they can choose from that menu,” she said on a radio program on Wednesday.
