SC sets debates to determine unprogrammed funds' legality
Manila Bulletin
|January 24, 2026
The Supreme Court (SC) will hold oral arguments on April 8 and 22 on several petitions that challenged the constitutionality of the unprogrammed funds and special accounts in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 national budgets.
The oral arguments will be conducted in Baguio City where the SC holds its traditional summer sessions.
On Feb. 4, the SC will hold a preliminary conference starting at 1 p.m. at its session hall on Padre Faura Street in Ermita, Manila.
The petitioners-legislators, taxpayers, and concerned citizens-asked the SC to nullify the adjustments made by Congress' Bicameral Conference Committees that inflated the national budget for three consecutive years.
