In line with the CDP Assessment for HUCs and ICCs held last December 18-19, 2018 at DILG XII Conference Room, the DILG XII conducted another round of assessment on January 30, 2019 at Paraiso Verde Resort, Koronadal City, South Cotabato.

The activity aimed at conducting a thorough evaluation on the very content of the CDP. Specifically, it focused on the quality of the substance, consistency to the prescribed CDP guidelines and alignment to regional strategic priorities.

One of the concerns of the RLA representatives during the assessment was whether their respective mandated plans were integrated in the CDPs. On the other hand, DBM Regional Director Akmad Usman appreciated the undertaking as it became a means in the achievement of efficient Public Financial Management (PFM) in our LGUs.

The assessment result will be released not later than February 2019 after NEDA XII finalized it. Copies shall be furnished to the concerned LCEs as basis in the updating of their respective CDPs after the May 2019 National and Local Elections.
