Senate to scrutinize govt flood control program

SENATE President Francis Escudero said the government's flood control program would be scrutinized when the Senate begins next week its plenary debates on the proposed P6.352 trillion 2025 national budget.

With many areas devastated by Severe Tropical Storm Kristine, Escudero said it was certain the flood control budget would be a 'hot topic' when the Senate takes up the proposed budgets of concerned agencies.
