O ayan ang inyong Daang Matuwid. Two separate sources from the DBM, who declined to be named for lack of authority to speak for the agency, revealed that the lawmakers accounted for 90 percent, or roughly 900, of the DAP-Saros but they could not verify the exact amount that went to legislators on top of their pork barrel funds as the agency had yet to complete its full accounting review. The sources said that the DAP-Saros received by legislators, worth between P95,000 and P10 million each, from 2011, when the facility was started with little fanfare, to 2013, when the economic stimulus program was questioned in the Supreme Court, which on July 1 ruled the facility as unconstitutional. Budget Secretary Florencio Abad declined to confirm these figures, claiming that “more research” was needed. Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr. said that he himself had yet to get a full accounting of DAP funds that went to his members.
