MANILA — The government will borrow P2.46 trillion to partly fund the P5.768 trillion national budget for next year, Rep. Stella Quimbo said Tuesday.

Some 43.32 percent of the 2024 national budget will come from borrowings, while the remaining 57 percent will be financed by local revenues, said Quimbo, senior vice chair of the House Appropriations Committee.

“From borrowings, it would be P2.46 trillion,” she said during the House of Representatives plenary deliberations on next year’s proposed budget.

Quimbo also said that the 2024 national budget sets aside resources for programs critical in accelerating the nation’s growth.
