“Pursuant to Section 78 of the General Provisions of the General Appropriations Act, rules on modification in the allotment, so the DBM should authorize or approve modifications — number one, from one allotment to another, number two from one operating unit to another, and number three is within a special purpose fund,” Quiazon replied.
