The same 27 entries as the browse tab, grouped into six sectors so you can pull one part of the budget away from the rest. Pick a sector and the table narrows to it. For anything below department level, the handoff at the bottom of this page tells you which two filters to set on the source dataset.

Line item detail, at the source

These tables stop at department level because that is where the published rollup stops. Below it, the data is there but only the source site can query it, so here is the exact route rather than a half working copy of their tool.

Four steps to a line item list

  1. Open the FY2027 search on budget.bettergov.ph.
  2. Set Spending group to the department you want from the table above.
  3. Set Region to Region V - Bicol. This is the filter that makes the result comparable to what is on this page.
  4. Choose a view. Line items gives every row, and the grouped views roll them up by object, agency, program or operating unit. Results export as CSV.

One warning before you compare our figures to theirs. The region filter there does the same thing the region tag does here: it selects by implementing office. A department whose Bicol work is commissioned centrally will look small under both. That is not a discrepancy between the two sites, it is the same limitation showing up twice.

Method

What this cannot tell you

It is not a law

The National Expenditure Program is what the Executive submits to Congress. Congress amends it, sometimes heavily, before enacting the General Appropriations Act.

proposal, not appropriation

It is not where the money lands

The region tag follows the implementing office. Work in Albay commissioned by a central office is tagged NCR. This is the most misread field in the dataset.

office, not location

It is not like-for-like

A FY2027 proposal against a FY2026 enacted law is the comparison analysts usually want, but the FY2026 proposal would be the true matching baseline.

proposal against law

It is not spending

An appropriation is legal authority to spend. It isn’t an obligation, a disbursement, or an outcome. Programme codes also get reassigned between years, so a fall can be a transfer rather than a cut.

authority, not outcome

Source and date. Figures come from the BetterGov.PH Philippine Budget Data API, a free public read-only API over Department of Budget and Management publications, retrieved 23 August 2026. The upstream dataset was generated 22 August 2026 from the DBM file NEP-FY2027.csv. Nationally the proposal is ₱7.20 T against ₱6.79 T enacted, across 532,313 line items. Aggregation is machine generated at source, and the source asks that figures be verified against the DBM document before being cited in formal work. See the FY2027 overview and the API documentation. Anything here can be disputed through corrections.
