00:51Now, many countries are looking at drones.

00:56The use of drones...

00:58About the hot discussion on the PhilHealth fund...

01:01The Secretary has always said, we will follow the decision of the Supreme Court.

01:06Of course, we're hoping that we don't have to.

01:08I mean, they are hoping that they don't have to.

01:11But should we be required to return it, then we will find a way to do so.

01:18Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel raised the issue of debt.

01:22And her question is...

01:24Does this administration intend to pay down our debt?

01:29They plan to make the economy grow faster than the debt.

01:33So the debt-to-GDP ratio will decrease.

01:37Senator Riza Honteveros raised the issue of the late registration of the birth certificate.

01:42Sometimes, he abuses it to get Filipino citizenship.

01:48Foreigners with bad intentions.

01:50But the government is pursuing this, according to the budget sponsor.

01:541,627 birth certificates of foreign nationals were blocked by the PSA after its investigation,

02:02finding the documents to be spurious.

02:04Because this is a process that some of our countrymen need,

02:11acting in good faith, and there are no bad intentions, real Filipinos.

02:16In the budget of the Department of Education,

02:18Senator Alan Peter Cayetano wants to return the tapias fund to the government,

02:24which is 2 billion pesos for the basic education facilities.

02:28According to Senator Rosincia Villar,

02:30the Department of Agriculture has enough money for the next storm.

02:36No, the Department of Agriculture has a lot of money to help.

02:42They won't be lost.

02:44It's not only the DA who is helping, they are also helping.

02:47But we are also helping, we are the senators.

02:50It is expected that in the next few days,

02:52some government agencies will be involved in the budget deliberations.
