Hon. Lorenz R. Defensor Representative, Iloilo (Third District) House of Representatives Subject: Request for explanation and documents on FY2027 DPWH budget lines for Iloilo (Third District) Dear Representative Lorenz R. Defensor: Good day. I live in Iloilo (Third District), and I would like to ask about some DPWH lines for the Iloilo 6th DEO in the FY2027 budget. When I compared the National Expenditure Program (NEP) with House Bill No. 10858 (third reading), I noticed the following: 1. Construction (Completion) of Multi-Purpose Building, Barangay Mina West, Mina, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱50,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 820; no matching NEP line for this office] 2. Rehabilitation of Multi-Purpose Building, Barangay Cabalabaguan, Mina, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱50,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 820; no matching NEP line for this office] 3. Construction of Multi-Purpose Building with Other Facilities, Barangay Mina East, Mina, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱50,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 820; no matching NEP line for this office] 4. Construction(Completion) of Multi-Purpose,Don T. Lutero West Street, Janiuay, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱27,500,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 820; no matching NEP line for this office] 5. Construction of Concrete Bridge, Barangay Daja, Maasin, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱25,500,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 565; no matching NEP line for this office] 6. Construction of Access Road, Barangay Canauilli to Barangay Agcarope, Janiuay, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱25,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 565; no matching NEP line for this office] 7. Construction of Multi-Purpose Building with Other Facilities, Barangay Mina West, Mina, Iloilo (Iloilo 6th DEO): not in the NEP; ₱25,000,000 in the House version.

[HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 820; no matching NEP line for this office] For each line above, may I ask for: 1. The reason or basis for adding, increasing, reducing or removing it, and who requested it; 2. The feasibility study, program of work, or detailed engineering design, if one exists; 3. The exact location and the expected beneficiaries; and 4. Any earlier projects at the same location and their status.

Past DPWH contracts under this office
153 contracts from 2024 to 2025 in public DPWH records (₱2.66B): 8 recorded as completed, 117 as ongoing. 92 have a satellite image check on file. Browse them.
How this was made. House lines come from the native text of House Bill No. 10858, third reading, Vol. I-C (official record); every one of the 15,977 amounts was checked against its printed page. NEP lines come from the FY2027 National Expenditure Program, Vol. II-B as read by the open BetterGov DPWH NEP–HB analysis. Lines are matched by office and title. A line marked “added” had no matching title under the same office in the NEP; “uncertain” means a similar title appears in the DPWH Transparency NEP listing or our own NEP reading, or the scan reading of the NEP amount needs a check. Past contracts and indicators come from public DPWH records on this site.
