EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 95 - ENSURING
EFFECTIVE OPERATIONAL PROCESSES AND STRUCTURAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR
BUDGETING AND MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS
WHEREAS,
the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) is the primary government
agency mandated to prepare and implement the national budget and pursue
fiscal and management reforms in the operation of the bureaucracy;
WHEREAS, instituting improvements in public expenditure management has
been a priority concern of the Department, which could be achieved,
among others, by putting in place a three-year plan which could contain
agency program priorities and implementation strategies, devolving to
agency heads the authority to utilize budget, and to operate a
performance evaluation and monitoring system among agencies;
WHEREAS, the Department is gearing towards a fully computerized
budgeting system through the Budget Execution and Accountability
Tracking (B.E.A.T.) System that will computerize the budget execution
and accountability phases of the budget process and streamline budget
release procedures to enable the prompt provision of funds to
agencies;
WHEREAS, in view of these budgetary innovations, a refocusing in the
functions of the different organizational units, as well as the
operational strategies in the Department, should be effected to make
its organizational setup and operational processes more responsive to
the requirements of the improvements in public expenditure management;
WHEREAS, under Sec. 20, Chapter 7, Title I, Book III of Executive
Order No. 292 (Administrative Code of 1987), the President of the
Philippines is empowered to exercise such powers and functions vested
in him which are provided for under the laws;
WHEREAS, under Sec. 77 of the General Provisions of Republic Act No.
8745 (FY 1999 General Appropriations Act), the President may direct
changes in the organization and key positions in any department, bureau
or agency; and
WHEREAS, Sec. 79 of the General Provisions of RA 8745, directs heads
of departments, bureaus and agencies to scale down, phase out or
abolish activities no longer essential in the delivery of public
services, and provides that savings generated from the abolition,
phasing out or scaling down of unnecessary activities may be used by
the departments, bureaus and agencies concerned for the augmentation of
their respective programs, projects and activities.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH EJERCITO ESTRADA, President of the Republic
of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do
