Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, December 10) — While it has not yet received the official report from Congress, Malacañang has vowed a speedy review of the ₱4.5-trillion national budget for 2021.
"
[A]ng bibigyan po natin ng kasiguraduhan eh bibilisan naman po ng Palasyo ang pagsusuri sa budget
para malaman kung meron mga specific lined item
na iv-veto
ang Presidente," said Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque during his regular virtual briefing, noting the Palace still awaits a copy of the proposed budget.
[Translation: What we can assure is that the Palace will speed up its review of the budget in order to find out if there are any specific lined items the President will be vetoing.]
