EO No. 77

Published by Department of Budget and Management(DBM-) on March 12, 2020.
Requested from DBM by V. Punzalan at 09:39 AM on March 12, 2020.
Purpose: Allocation for Daily Travel Expense
Date of Coverage: 03/11/2020 - 03/12/2020
Tracking no: #DBM-541559729967

According to Section 6b(ii) of EO No. 77, "Meals in an amount not exceeding the 30% of the authorized meal component of the DTE as indicated in Section 5 hereof." Our Office (NGA) is located in NCR thus, this section will apply. However, our auditor interpreted the mentioned clause as: Meal allowance not exceeding the 30% OF THE 30% of 2,200 (which is 660) or 198 pesos only. In line with this, I would like to ask for clarification regarding this matter. It is fair and reasonable that field travels within NCR can also avail the 30% of 2,200. Thanks.
