00:00The Commission on Elections, COMELEC, reminded the candidates and the government agencies
00:06that the Pondo ng Bayan will not be used for the campaign in the upcoming elections,
00:12especially in the programs that will be exempted from the Election Spending Ban.
00:17This is what Louisa Erispe reported.
00:21The Pondo ng Bayan will not be used for the campaign.
00:25This is what the Commission on Elections reminded the candidates and the government agencies
00:31that the Pondo ng Bayan will not be used for the campaign in the upcoming elections,
00:36especially in the programs that will be exempted from the Election Spending Ban.
00:44Some of the first programs to be exempted are the DOLE programs like TUPAD and others.
00:49The Department of Health, National Housing Authority,
00:53Municipal Social Welfare Development in Bohol,
00:55Department of Agriculture, BIFAR, CHED, and other LGUs will also be exempted.
00:59The Commission on Elections will not be an obstacle to the aid, especially,
01:05that the government is providing because it is a privilege that we all accept.
01:12But COMELEC said that this is not only for the candidates,
01:16but also for the government agencies.
01:19Their reminders are not limited to the Spending Ban.
01:21COMELEC said that if the government agencies allow the politicians to distribute aid,
01:27they will chase the officials behind this.
01:30Once someone complained to us that this was used for politics,
01:34and it was only given to a group of voters because they are supporters,
01:39we can stop it and withdraw the exemption anytime.
01:43It's not an absolute exemption.
01:45There's no compensation.
01:47We can compensate them anytime.
01:48We can sue the officials who are responsible.
01:52COMELEC explained that for places with calamities,
01:56like San Egros Island,
01:57that will provide aid because of the volcano eruption,
02:01it's better if the LGUs or government agencies will distribute it.
02:06Meanwhile, COMELEC has not yet received a request for exemption
02:11from the programs of the DSWD.
02:14When it comes to the fund and ACAP program of the DSWD,
02:17COMELEC will study if it will also prohibit 10 days before the election,
02:23like what they did in the AICS program.
02:26The AICS absolutely prohibited 10 days before the election.
02:31We were asked yesterday in an interview
02:34if ACAP will also prohibit 10 days before the election.
02:39The commission will study what should be done in ACAP,
02:45if it is the same as AICS,
02:47and if it should have the same treatment as AICS.
02:51COMELEC will still receive a request before January 12
02:55for those who want to be exempted from the spending ban.
02:58Luisa Erispe for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
