The Senate postponed budget deliberations while the House of Representatives approved a budget measure on October 11, 2026. Analysts noted that the impeachment trial of Vice-President Sara Duterte-Carpio threatens to disrupt congressional deliberations in the Philippines. The proposed 2027 budget is P7.2-trillion, which is 6% higher than the current year’s P6.793-trillion spending plan.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Analysts stated that a poorly scrutinized national budget poses greater economic risks than a temporary budget reenactment. If Congress fails to approve a replacement budget before year-end, the previous year’s General Appropriations Act remains in effect. A reenacted budget could restrict agencies’ spending flexibility and slow public spending, weighing on economic growth.
