Officials who utilized the P112 million confidential funds of the Department of Education for 2023 cannot just wash their hands and escape accountability, Senator Risa Hontiveros said Tuesday.The lawmaker was reacting to the remarks of DepEd Undersecretary for Finance Annalyn Sevilla at the House deliberations of the agency's proposed P793 billion budget for 2025 that the department was unaware of how the confidential fund was utilized.
"Kung ang kagawaran mismo, hindi maipaliwanag kung paano ginamit ang confidential fund, at ang dating kalihim ay umiiwas sa pagsagot tungkol dito, mas lalong nadaragdagan ang duda," Hontiveros said. "Hindi pwedeng maghugas kamay ang ilang opisyal ng ahensya sa usapin ng paggamit ng confidential fund. Kung hindi ito nagamit ng tama at wasto, mananagot din ang sinumang may partisipasyon sa paggamit nito," the senator added.
