Tomorrow (December 4th) is the start of a 3-day year-end seminar of the Association of Local Budget Officers in Region VI. Venue is at the newly refurbished Coral Ballroom of Punta Villa Resort, Iloilo City.
Day 1 of this culminating seminar will be devoted to the refresher on the new allotment system to be implemented starting January, 2007. A coaching-workshop on the preparation of the local budget matrix and allotment release order will be conducted by the DBM RO 6 staff. A follow through session on the preparation of cash program and cash flow analysis will also be part of the technical session.
On the 2nd day, a review of the mechanics of the performance evaluation system to be undertaken by the local finance committee of each LGU; and the updates on COA rules are the two main topics. In the afternoon, we are expecting that Secretary Andaya will join the LBOs right after the cabinet meeting here in the city - for a dialogue and update on the proposed Government Compensation and Classification Act (GCCA) as well as the Internal Revenue Allotment. In the evening, the LBOs will hold their traditional fellowship night and christmas party. Each provincial association is expected to render a christmas number, and the LBO retirees for the year will be honored.
Activities for the 3rd day will be abbreviated as most participants, as usual, is in a hurry to go home. But the year-end affair will not be complete without the association meeting in a general assembly to discuss their concerns and plan out for the year ahead.
IMBOA, the host association promises that this 3-day seminar will be more memorable and fulfilling than the previous ones.
