Mambulao LGU qualifies for 2014 funding scheme


 
By ALFREDO P HERNANDEZ

THE Mambulao LGU has qualified for the 2014 Grassroots Participatory Budgeting (GPB), the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) said.

The DBM said the LGU has made substantial implementation of its Public Financial Management (PFM) improvement plan.

The DBM certification would give the LGU easy access to funds for its various development projects.

Aside from the GPB, the LGU could also access funds under PAMANA, Salintubig and special local road funds under the policies of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG).
In 2012, the Mambulao LGU received the 2012 Seal of Good Housekeeping (SGH).

Secretary Mar Roxas, in a letter to Mayor Ricarte Padilla, said seal was awarded to LGUs that successfully met the requirement of the full disclosure policy, have exemplary standard of frontline services and procurement and proven to have no adverse or disclaimer audit findings by the Commission of Audit (COA).

Under the GPB scheme, the LGU has accessed funding for its tilapiyahan project this year (P104,000) and for the pushcart livelihood project initiative (P200,000).
