[Title] => Kapalpakan ng BIR inamin
[Summary] => Inamin kahapon ng Malacañang na palpak o pangit ang performance ng Bureau of Internal Revenue sa pagkolekta ng buwis.
Sinabi ni Budget and Management Secretary Benjamin Diokno na, dahil sa kapalpakan ng BIR, aabot sa P90 milyon ang deficit o kakulangan sa pambansang budget kumpara sa target na P62.5 bilyon.
Dahil dito, kailangan anyang tatlong buwan lang ang suspension sa pag-aalis sa excise tax sa krudong langis dahil hindi kakayanin ng pamahalaan na mawalan ito ng P400 milyong kita kada buwan. (Ulat ni Ely Saludar)

[Summary] =>
President Estrada may veto the P10-billion internal revenue allotment (IRA) in
this year's proposed budget, Budget and Management Secretary Benjamin Diokno

Local Government Code if he approves the P10-billion IRA even if it is being
transferred to unprogrammed items in the budget, meaning the amount is
