According to Budget Secretary Butch Abad, 90% of the 2016 National Budget was already released to different government agencies. Abad added that the improvement on the budget release was due to the new treatment of the 2016 General Appropriation Act as a release document as well as the implementation of the pre-procurement activities. Because of this, government projects will be implemented before the election ban on March 25, 2016.
