Original Audit Finding Excerpt
"36.10 The non-obligation or non-expending of the NDRRMF is counterproductive to the government's disaster resilience and risk reduction initiatives. The original purpose for which the funds were allocated was not achieved, and the unutilized portion of the prior year’s budget was reverted to the General Fund."
