“Our estimate is that only around P2 billion is needed to cover the increase in the SRI of our teachers and non-teaching staff from P18,000 to P20,000 each,” Campos said. “We are all for the grant of additional cash incentives and allowances to our teachers and non-teaching staff in recognition of their hard work and to help them cope with the rising cost of living,” Campos said.
He says the MPBF has an allocation of P29.7 billion in the 2024 national budget, and another P163.3 billion in the 2025 General Appropriations Bill that the President is set to sign on Dec. 20.
