SALN
The Office of the Ombudsman has requested statements of assets, liabilities and net worth (SALN) from all House of Representatives members as it probes irregularities in government flood control projects. Ombudsman Jesus Crispin Remulla said 26 lawmakers linked to the issue will undergo lifestyle checks, with possibly one more added. He made the announcement on his weekend radio program.

Ombudsman Boying Remulla stated that his investigators are facing difficulties in obtaining the Statements of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALNs) from House members. This matters because the Ombudsman, as the country's top anti-graft agency, is probing corruption in flood control projects where some lawmakers are allegedly involved. SALNs provide summaries of public officials' finances, properties, and liabilities, which can highlight potential irregularities.
