DOE, DICT have billions in unspent funds – DBM

Manila Bulletin

August 22, 2025

While most government agencies posted a 94-percent utilization rate of their cash allocations in the first seven months of 2025, the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) each have over 30 percent in unspent funds.

- By DERCO ROSAL

Latest data from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) showed that notices of cash allocation (NCAs) released to state agencies reached P2.99 trillion in January to July, 9.1 percent higher than last year's P2.74 trillion.

Of this amount, P2.81 trillion was utilized by line departments, staterun corporations, and local government units (LGUS), leaving P178.2 billion in unused funds during the seven-month period.

NCAs are fund release authorities issued by the DBM that allow government agencies to spend for their programs and projects. A higher NCA utilization rate indicates that agencies are disbursing funds and implementing projects on time.
