Solon seeks House probe on delays in SRA distribution
Ang Probinsyano Rep. Alfred C. Delos Santos filed House Resolution 2102 on Monday seeking a congressional inquiry into delays and discrepancies in the release of the Special Risk Allowance (SRA) for healthcare workers.
The resolution was prompted by a viral Facebook post from nurse Gershom Sage Reyes Rivero, who received only P3,863.63 as SRA for seven months of service.
Delos Santos cited Section 4 of Republic Act 11469 or the Bayanihan to Heal as One Act which mandates additional benefits for public health workers during a public health emergency.
He noted that around PHP9 billion worth of funds intended for healthcare workers have either not reached recipients or were disbursed in insufficient amounts.
