The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) said they will deliver the second tranche of cash aid to poor families by end of May..
The distribution can already begin as government will employ electronic means for the subsidy system, Malacañang said Monday.
The DSWD is validating the list of beneficiaries as it awaits guidelines from government’s technical working group on social amelioration program, DSWD spokesperson Irene Dumlao said.
“Kinakailangan may judicious spending of our resources para may ma-cover tayong iba,” she told ABS-CBN’s Teleradyo.
“Ang objective o goal ng DSWD, bago matapos ang buwan ng Mayo ay makapagpahatid na tayo.”
The second round of subsidies will include 5 million more poor families and 12 million others who benefited from the first tranche, Malacañang said.
Beneficiaries will receive cash aid ranging between P5,000 and P8,000 based on minimum wage rates in the region./Stacy Ang
