BUB project completion dismal

Less than a quarter of projects under the government’s Bottom-Up-Budgeting (BUB) program have been completed in the last two years, according to an independent report that assessed the Aquino administration’s commitment to the Open Government Partnership.

The Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) Progress Report 2013 to 2015 released on Saturday showed that only 23 percent of BUB projects started in 2013 was completed.
