Defense: no rule barred OVP or DepEd from receiving the funds

On cross-examination on Day 15, the defense elicited from COA-ICFAO state auditor Xylene Mae del Campo that Joint Memorandum Circular 2015-01 contains no prohibition on either the Office of the Vice President or the Department of Education receiving confidential funds; that, based on the documents submitted to COA, the Office of the President approved the OVP's fourth-quarter 2022 confidential funds; and that the OVP's 2023 confidential funds were provided for in the General Appropriations Act.

The ₱16M for 34 safe houses in 11 days

Questioned by Senator-Judge Raffy Tulfo on Day 15, COA-ICFAO state auditor Xylene Mae del Campo confirmed that, based on House of Representatives records, the Office of the Vice President spent P16 million in confidential funds on the rental of 34 safe houses over 11 days in 2022, and that the acknowledgement receipts for those rentals carried no property addresses. She testified that other agencies' safe-house liquidations were not as large, and that other agencies generally spread confidential-fund spending across a three-month period rather than concentrating it in the Christmas and New Year season.

Whether confidential activities fit DepEd's mandate

Testifying before the impeachment court on Day 15, COA-ICFAO state auditor Xylene Mae del Campo said that, based on the Department of Education's stated mandate, confidential activities are not part of that mandate. The prosecution put the question after noting that the law charges DepEd with basic, elementary and secondary education.
