COUNCIL IN CONSULTATION WITH CONCERNED DEPARTMENTS,
SUCH AS THE DPWH, DOT, DOH, DOF, DOTC, AND THE NATIONAL
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTAUTHORITY
(NEDA).
FACTS
Our constitution provides for three(3) branches of government, the
Executive, the Legislative and the Judiciary;. These branches ofgovernment
were created for the purpose of having "CHECK AND BALANCE" in
overnment and they have their own distinctfunction andpurposefor us to
e able to realize a government truly responsive to the needs andprotection
ifour people.

3. As a democratic and republican state, power reside in the people and all
government authorities come from them. We reject concentration ofpower
on one person, as in the Marcos dictatorship, and more, so or even
concentration of power in a single group thru monopoly of control over
financial control ofgovernment coffers in the guise of what we call now
"PRIORITYDEVELOPMENTASSISTANCE FUND OR PDAF.
Through a research made we define the three branches ofour government,
"each branch being supreme in its own sphere but with constitutional limits
and afirm tripod ofchecks and balances, as follows:
The E·eculil'e Branch
The executive hranch is ht:!aded hy the President, who is elected hy a direct
vote of' the people. The term of office of the Pre:·;ident. as well {L',' the Vice-
President, is six (6) years. As head ql the Executive Department, the
President is the Chief Executive. He represents the government as a whole
and sees to it that a/llmvs are eJ?f(wced hy the qfficia/5; and employees (~(his
department. He has control over the executive departn1ent, bureaus and
offices. This 1neans that he has the authori(l' to assume direct(1' thefzmctions
(~( the executive department. bureau and office or inte!fere with the
discretion (d. its officials. Corollmy tu the puwer (~l control, the President
also has the dll(v ofsupervising the el?(orcernent <?llaws for the maintenance
qfgeneral peace and puhlic order. Thus, he is granted administrative power
over buremts and offices under his control to enable him to discharge his
duties effective(v.
The President o:ercises general supervision over all local government units
and is also the Conunander-in-Chief(?(the Armed Ff.wces o(the Philippines.
Under the existing Presidential fhrm o( government. the exeL:utive and
legislative branches are entire(v separate, subfect on(l' 10 the mechanisms of
checks and halanees.
The Legb.;/atiPe Branch
The legislative hranclz. which has the Lmthority to make. alter or repeal laws
{see also the de.finition q( "legislative pawer). is the Congress. "Congress is
. ~/--)ve.sted wi~h t~Je tremem:o.us poll'e'.· of'the pz.trse. traditim.wlzv recogni~ed in
, the constllulmnal provtswn thar no money shall he pmd ol/1 qt the Treosw~v
J except in pw·suonce (?(an appropriation made by law. ·It comprehends horh

4. the pmver to generate money hy taxation (the pmver /()tax) ami the power to
spend it (tlw power to appropriate). 777e power to appropriate carries with it
the pmver to spec[(v the amount that may he spenr and the purpose for which
ir may he spent.
Under a bicameral system, the Congress is composed<~( the Senote and rhe
Ho1tse <?f.Representotives·
The Judiciary
Judici(ny power is ·vested in rhe Supreme C'ourt and in such lml'er courts as
IJ/(~' he established hy law The judicim:v has the moderating power to
determine the proper allocation <?l powers between the hronches of
guvernmem. JVhen the '_'judicimy medimes to allocate consritutional
houndaries. it does not assert arzv superiority ovt.'r the orher departments,· it

all courts ond the personnel thereof.' having the pmt•er to discipline or
dismiss judges o(/mt•er courts.
ISSUE
1. Nowhere in the above mentionedfunctions and authority ofthe
Legislative Branch ofour government says that they may identify
vroiects and vrovide funds thereofin behalfofthe Local eovernment

5. Units;
2. The Legislative Branch may pass the Appropriation Act but they have
no power of identifY projects as this function is vested in the
Executive Branch through the Local Government Units; with PDAF
they (Legislative) are encroaching into the territory ofthe Executive
Branch ofour Government and this is a violation ofour Constitution;
3. PDAF has been proven to be counter productive as projects are
identified by Legislators who are not familiar and knowledgeable
with the situation in the LGUs, especially in Congressional District
whose Governor does not belong to the same Political Party as the
Congressman or Senator;
4. PDAF has become the most abused and misused fimds of all
available funds in our government so that we may call it now as
"Mother ofall Corruptions"; it has become a suppressive scheme as
it was become a tool to divide our leaders and our people rather than
a development tool to develop our nation; there is no need to
enumerate how the PDAF are abused and misused as we can feel the
effect as they are all over, hospitals without equipment and medicine
and dilapidated ambulance; fire department without fire engines,
ghost reforestation program/project which has caused flooding
everywhere "band aid" flood control project, lack ofclassrooms and
books, no highway patrol cars (and we can see Congressmen and
Senators with their big SUVs); squatters or informal settlers all over
with some ofthem being swept away by flood waters; we can go on
and on and we can always trace all our miseries back to corruption
in government- in particular failure of the PDAF as an economic
tool; less corruption means more development and less miseries for
our people;
5. What makes my heart bleed more is when I visit Barangays in far
flung areas ofour province with no access to potable water and when
I watched a TVprogram showing Barangayfolks fetching waterfrom
a well located kilometers away from their house, school children
walking kilometers n going to school without a slipper on their feet,
etc. etc. etc. .......... as ifthey are not part ofour government or they
can notfeel the presence oftheir government.
