The bicameral conference committee has approved an increase in funding for the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situations (AICS) program to P63.8 billion for 2026, despite concerns over potential political misuse. Lawmakers also addressed last-minute requests from government agencies and approved budgets for over 20 agencies. Malacañang insists on passing a new budget to avoid reenacting the previous one.
