OVP budget hearing closes in an hour, marked by calm
Tempo
|September 17, 2025
The budget hearing of the Office of the Vice President (OVP) before the House Committee on Appropriations on Tuesday, Sept. 19, was quiet and smooth - very different from last year’s tense and heated session.
Vice President Sara Duterte spent just one hour speaking to the panel before the hearing on the OVP's proposed P902.895 million outlay for 2026 was terminated or concluded.
The situation was a far cry from the OVP budget hearing last year, when decorum took a backseat as an antagonistic Duterte clashed with lawmakers over her use of confidential and intelligence funds - issues that later formed the basis of an impeachment complaint filed by the same chamber before the Senate last February.
