Page 6 - The DILG R1 in 2016

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Department of the Interior and Local Government Region 1 (DILG R1) continues to
provide the needed technical assistance to the 129 Local Government Units (LGUs)
in the Region through the implementation of the major deliverables as well as other
deliverables of the Department for FY 2016.

The DILG R1 has maintained its exemplary performance in the implementation of the
different programs, projects, and activities (PPAs) as manifested by the different awards
and recognitions given to its LGUs, to the Regional Office itself and to its personnel.
The DILG R1 prides itself as the only regional office that was ranked Best in the rating of
delivery units for the Performance-Based Bonus (PBB) for three consecutive years.

It received a special recognition for having the highest number of Seal of Good
Local Governance (SGLG) Awardees among the regions and was ranked 5th under
Institutional Category for Operational Performance. Barangay 1, San Lorenzo,
Laoag City won the national award for Outstanding Lupon, while the Municipality of
Dumalneg, Ilocos Norte bagged the 2015 Presidential Awards for Child-Friendly Municipality
under the 4th-6th Income Class Category.

In terms of PPA implementation, DILG R1 strove to achieve and even surpass its targets.
All LGUs are fully complying to the Full Disclosure Policy (FDP). One hundred percent
of the Local Chief Executives were oriented under the Newly-Elected Officials (NEO)
Training Program. Technical Assistance was provided in the implementation of
locally-funded projects such as Bottom-Up Budgeting (BuB)/Assistance to Disadvantaged
Municipalities (ADM), Sagana at Ligtas na Tubig sa Lahat (SALINTUBIG) and Performance
Challenge Fund (PCF) among others.

The DILG R1 and its workforce has been supportive and cooperative with the government’s
intensified campaign against criminality and illegal drugs and sustained good governance as
manifested in the Regional Launch of the Mamamayang Ayaw sa Anomalya, Mamamayang
Ayaw sa Iligal na Droga (MASA MASID) and the conduct of Provincial Anti-Illegal Drugs
Summit last 2016.

The DILG R1 shall move forward to 2017 with the same passion and purpose. It will
undoubtedly be another productive and rewarding year for the DILG R1.
