State auditors from Commission on Audit (COA) raised concerns over the naming of certain socialized housing projects such as “Klarexville” after the incumbent mayor of Cagayan de Oro City. The observation references COA Circular No. 2013-004, which discourages the use of an official’s name, image, or logo on government-funded programs, projects, and properties. The circular classifies such practices as forms of “unnecessary publicity,” particularly when public resources are used in a way that may promote an incumbent official. From an audit perspective, this raises potential compliance issues with broader “anti-epal” or anti-personal branding principles in public governance. These guidelines aim to ensure that government projects are presented as institutional efforts funded by taxpayers rather than being associated with or attributed to individual public officials. While the naming itself does not automatically constitute a violation, auditors noted that it may create the impression of personal endorsement or ownership of publicly funded initiatives. As a result, such practices are often flagged for review to promote transparency, neutrality, and proper use of government resources.

In today's digital era, access to the internet has become an essential part of daily life. From education and employment to commerce, banking, health services, and even spiritual gatherings--much of modern human interaction now occurs online. The COVID-19 pandemic, in particular, underscored how deeply intertwined digital connectivity has become with basic survival and social function. Whether in urban centers or remote provinces, the Filipino people rely on stable and accessible internet to work, learn, communicate, and participate in society. Yet, despite paying for mobile data or broadband subscriptions, many subscribers lose their unused internet data at the end of each period. For postpaid users, this often means forfeiting paid but unused megabytes or gigabytes. For prepaid subscribers, it means re-purchasing similar data promos just to maintain connection often without maximizing their previous allocations. This is not only inefficient; it is fundamentally unfair to consumers. In response to these long-standing concerns, this bill proposes to mandate a roll-over data allocation scheme across all Internet Service Providers (ISPS) in the country. Through this measure, subscribers will be allowed to carry over their unused data to the next billing cycle, or until fully consumed. For postpaid users, this includes an added provision for the conversion of accumulated unused data into rebates for the succeeding year. Prepaid subscribers will also benefit from the rollover system, provided that they renew their subscriptions promptly. A gradual reduction and eventual expiration of data will apply only if renewal lapses. Through a roll-over data mechanism, consumers will get full value for the services they pay for and will ensure that no data goes to waste simply because of arbitrary expiration periods. It also strengthens digital inclusion, especially for students, remote workers, small business owners, and families who are now more reliant than ever on online platforms.

With the passage of Republic Act No. 11982 on February 26, 2024 which granted benefits to Filipino Octogenarians and Nonagenarians, aside from Filipino Centenarians receiving commensurate benefits by virtue of Republic Act No. 10868, otherwise known as the "Centenarians Act of 2016", it emphatically illuminated our deeply embedded Filipino culture of high respect and profound care for our elders. Regrettably, as we face the emerging demographic reality of ageing, several studies have shown that the increasing number of elderly population of our society necessitates accelerated and broaden interventions to ensure adequate social security favorable to such vulnerable sector in terms of financial support, at the very least. While the Act sought to be amended herein, as well as its precursor, are primarily contemplated to honor or pay tribute to our elders for longevity, the present Bill shall further strengthen our Constitutional commitment to provide our senior citizens with adequate social services and improved quality of life inasmuch as their current stage of life needs the most of the blessings of the law. Parenthetically, it must be highlighted that during biblical times, age seventy (70) was considered as man's average lifespan and that life beyond seventy (70) was already a fringe benefit. In parallel, various studies likewise shown that the country's life expectancy range, at present time, is at an alarming state whereby available data evinced that an average Filipino residing in the country has a lifespan of only 69.3 years¹ or 71.23 years². At such age thus, it may be safely envisioned that most of our elders are already enduring certain health issues or economic hardships, to name a few. It is in this light that the undersigned intends to amend the prevailing law, i.e., for the sheer purpose of amplifying the benefits of the law in favor of other age brackets. And thus bearing witness to the immemorial aphorism, in the vernacular, that "Huli man daw at magaling ay naihahabol din".

Origins of the Investigation In August 2025, the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee launched a motu proprio investigation dubbed "Philippines Under Water" into alleged irregularities in flood control projects. Lacson initiated the inquiry through two privilege speeches titled "Flooded Gates of Corruption" Parts 1 and 2, with the first delivered on August 20, 2025, citing Bulacan as a hotspot for anomalous projects and linking irregularities to congressional insertions. What the Investigation Uncovered The probe exposed a massive, systemic corruption network estimated in the trillions of pesos. Lacson laid out how the scheme involved a network of actors: a "Contractors Group" that colluded to rig public biddings and monopolize flood control projects; key DPWH coordinators who managed allocations and orchestrated kickback collection; and intermediaries or bagmen who received illicit funds on behalf of their principals. Key findings included: Ghost projects and contractor monopolies. DPWH officials acknowledged possible "ghost" projects in Bulacan, particularly in Calumpit, Hagonoy, and Malolos, where a single firm reportedly bagged around ₱9 billion in contracts. Senators alleged that a small group of contractors had cornered contracts worth around ₱100 billion, raising serious concerns about competition and transparency. License renting and bid rigging. Reports emerged that contractor licenses rated triple-A or quadruple-A were being leased to smaller builders, a practice linked to substandard construction. Contractor Sarah Discaya admitted at a hearing that her nine construction firms had sometimes bid for the same government flood control projects simultaneously. High-level kickback allegations. Witness Orly Guteza testified that he regularly delivered luggage filled with cash to former House Speaker Martin Romualdez's residence, with the amount allegedly totaling an estimated ₱1.68 billion. The committee's draft report also recommended legal action against Senators Escudero, Estrada, and Villanueva for allegedly receiving commissions from the flood control budget. Lacson's Approach and Leadership Style Throughout the proceedings, Lacson emphasized an evidence-driven approach. He assured the public that as chairman, he was guided only by evaluating and validating the credibility and reliability of both the source and the information itself before taking action. He stressed that the committee always follows where the evidence leads, without targeting any particular person or intending to cover up for anybody. When critics questioned the investigation's tangible results, Lacson pointed to investigations started by other government agencies, cases filed with the Sandiganbayan, the resignation of key players in budget manipulation, and reforms in the budget process including live streaming of bicameral meetings and safeguards to prevent vague infrastructure projects. The Draft Committee Report Lacson confirmed a draft report recommending charges against several incumbent senators and other officials, including fugitive former lawmaker Zaldy Co and former DPWH chief Manuel Bonoan. However, the report became politically contentious. Several senators withdrew their signatures, saying they needed more time to review it, bringing the number of signatories well below the 11-member majority needed to submit it to the plenary. Lacson later adjusted the report's language, recommending "preliminary investigation" and "fact-finding investigation" rather than outright charges, though he maintained the substance remained the same. He also indicated openness to submitting a "Chairman's Report" to the Ombudsman and DOJ if not enough signatures could be gathered, noting that much of the material evidence that led to cases being filed came from the Blue Ribbon Committee hearings. In summary, Lacson's leadership of the Blue Ribbon probe has been one of the most consequential Senate investigations in recent Philippine history, exposing deeply embedded corruption networks linking contractors, DPWH officials, and legislators in the misuse of the country's flood control budget.

The Ombudsman has temporarily held the probe in abeyance pending the Supreme Court's ruling on the overall constitutionality of the budget.
