DILG Bohol Annual Report 2016

MESSAGE DILG’s journey towards good governance in the year 2016 has ended. The journey with the local government units and other stakeholders was a fruitful and successful one. I say fruitful because the DILG scaled up the capacities of LGUs to make them Accountable, Transparent, Participative and Effective; Socially Protective and Safe; Environment Protective, Disaster Resilient and Climate Change Adaptive and Business Friendly and Competitive. A concrete manifestation is the conferment of the Seal of Good Housekeeping to eight (8) LGUs of Bohol and the Good Financial Housekeeping to 47 LGUs of Bohol. Another significant activity wherein the DILG scaled up the capacities of LGUs was the priming of the officials catapulted into office in the May, 2016 political exercise. This was through the Newly Elected Officials (NEO) program of the department which started from the ensuring of smooth transition until the Looking Forward to Better Governance. Year 2016’s journey was also significant since the department shifted its gears when President Rodrigo Roa Duterte assumed into office. The shift may not be that big, but certainly, programs and projects were modified and added with new ones, in line with the President’s thrusts. These are all accounted in this 2016 Annual Report. Admittedly, the journey was not a smooth one, due to the challenges along the way, but with DILG Bohol’s efforts, teamwork and dedication and the constant support of central and regional management, all the stumbling blocks were confronted and dealt with. Thus, DILG Bohol successfully accomplished its mandated tasks along with other demand driven activities of the local government units and other national government agencies. The intercession of the Almighty Father and the support of various stakeholders – LGUs, NGAs, CSOs, LRIs, Private sector- greatly helped in the realization of the DILG mandates and targets. As we look forward to another year of meaningful engagement with the LGUs, may we be continuously motivated with the words “Matino, Mahusay and Maaasahan”, an epitome of genuine public service. Congratulations DILG Bohol and Mabuhay! MARIA LOISELLA E. LUCINO, CESO V Provincial Director i

With this, the people are knowledgeable of the LGU’s budget management, disbursements and usage of funds. Posting in conspicuous places and FDP Portal are regularly monitored at the Municipal and Provincial Level to ensure that posting is within the prescribed period. Table 1.

Since these documents are beyond the deadline for uploading, affected LGUs cannot anymore upload since the system would require them to contact provincial/regional focal persons to upload. Considering that this is an additional workload to the provincial/regional focal person, uploading is not prioritized. Moreover, DILG-Bohol has assisted the LGUs of Alicia, Jagna, Sevilla and Tubigon in its request for Certification of Compliance to FDP for its loan application. Prior any recommendations and endorsements to the regional level, on-site validations were done by Cluster Leaders, Ma. Reina A. Quilas and Redemcion G. Cag-ong to check the LGUs’ posting at the conspicuous places. Meanwhile, postings at the portal were monitored by FDP Provincial Focal Person, Mylove C. Flood. The 2015 efforts in upholding the principles of transparency and accountability in public funds by exhibiting compliance with accounting and auditing standards, rules and regulations as well as compliance with the Full Disclosure Policy have caused the passing of the Bohol Province, Tagbilaran City and Forty-Five (45) municipalities in the 2016 Good Financial Housekeeping. Recipients of Good Financial Housekeeping will have an access to other program windows like Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (PAMANA), Bottom-Up Budgetting (BUB), loans from Government Owned and Controlled Corporations and grants subject to national policies and guidelines.

The program is implemented in 2014 until at present. It encourages and challenges local governments to improve on their performance and service delivery set across the core areas of Financial Administration, Disaster Preparedness and Social Protection and the essential areas which are Business Friendliness and Competitiveness, Peace and Order and Environmental Management. The SGLG adopts the “3+1” principle, meaning the LGU must pass the indicators of the three core areas and any one of the essential areas to be conferred the Seal. The Seal aligns itself with national and international good governance frameworks, specifically those pertaining to local government responsibilities like the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure coherence in the parameters used in the core and essential areas. As a whole, the seal takes on the principles integrated in the Philippine Development Plan, by looking at specific development actions and conditions in the six areas covered. In 2016, the SGLG criteria are upscaled. This is in consonance with the notion of progressively monitoring local government performance. Generally, upscaling/upgrading is considering other attributes of the indicators used in 2015, increasing targets and adding new ones in the area. Enhanced process is also adopted on the validation of data and feedbacking. Roll Out to Field Officers To prepare the cities and municipalities for the onsite validation by the Regional Assessment Team (RAT), a Roll Out/Orientation on the 2016 SGLG to Field Officers was conducted on February 26, 2016 at the Bohol Tropics Resort, Tagbilaran City.

Most of the LGUs do not provide budgetary allocation for these activities. • Trainings and Seminars. Allocation for trainings and seminars on Katarungang Pambarangay are provided by twenty-four LGUs of the province; these are included in the budget for peace and order, aid to barangays or in the Office of the Municipal Mayor.

The Program aims to build strategic leaders out of the newly elected officials (both the executive and legislative) who would lead their local governments in becoming competitive, efficient and responsive institutions for development. Given the fresh mandate as a result of the May 2016 local election, all the LGUs of the province had a smooth local governance transition to the newly-elected or re-elected local officials on June 30, 2016. During the transition period, the LGUs conducted the mandatory activities pursuant to DILG MC No. 2016-21which include the inventory of their properties; accumulation of all pertinent documents or records; turning-over of accountabilities using prescribed forms; organized turn-over ceremony from the outgoing officials to the incoming set of leaders and the accomplishment and submission of elective local officials personnel data sheet. The creation of Local Governance Transition Teams prior to the elections made possible the realization of these activities.
