The Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) said it has been proactively working with partner-organizations to ensure that only legitimate beneficiaries would receive government housing units.
In a statement over the weekend, DHSUD Secretary Eduardo Del Rosario urged key shelter agencies, local government units and other partner-organizations to strictly follow the implementing guidelines and criteria in beneficiary identification and selection.
“I am calling on our partner-stakeholders to proactively observe the prescribed process and criteria in identifying our housing project beneficiaries so that only those who are truly affected are given assistance,” Del Rosario said.
The Social Housing Finance Corp. (SHFC), in partnership with the Philippine National Railways, Presidential Commission for the Urban Poor, Department of Transportation, local government of Biñan, and the Beneficiary Selection, Awards and Arbitration Committee (BSAAC) of the Local Inter-Agency Committee for the North-South Commuter Railway Extension (NSCREx) Project recently held a workshop to discuss the process of BSAAC deliberation to prevent illegal occupancies.
The workshop also revisited the process and criteria for the deliberation of project affected persons (PAP) under the NSCREx.
It started in 2018 by conducting census among the PAPs in the area, followed by a pre-qualification validation in 2019.
Community assemblies were completed last year.
DHSUD said the deliberation process will start this year after the conduct area inspection by SHFC.
Implementing agencies are streamlining the qualification requirements upon review of the situational assessment report.
“Despite the pandemic, we will work on enhancing further our capacities to implement our projects in the most effective and efficient way. Now more than ever, the Filipino dwellers are counting on the integrity of our selection process with accurate results,” Del Rosario said.
