PhilID (PHILIPPINE STATISTICS AUTHORITY)
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) on Wednesday, July 14, said individuals aged 15 to 17 and above 65 are now allowed to register for the second step of the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys).
PSA cited that the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) has issued a resolution allowing “individuals 15 to 17 years old, and above 65 years old to leave their residence for the purpose of proceeding to registration centers of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) for the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) Step 2 Registration.”
Step 1 registration can be done online but Step 2 requires applicants to go to the registration centers for biometric information collection and validation of documents.

In an interview with Super Radyo DZBB, Ablan said they have already made the request to the Department of Budget and Management (DBM).
“Nag-request na kami sa DBM ng plantilla positions para makalipat na sa regular position ang ilang contractual employees (We have requested the DBM for more plantilla positions so some contractual employees can move to regular positions),” he said Sunday, July 11.
He added that some employees will undergo civil service examinations to qualify for regular positions.
A plantilla is a government-approved listing of positions in any governmental institution.
The Commission on Audit (COA) flagged the PCOO’s “unrestricted and massive” hiring of contractual employees that cost the agency P70.6 million, an amount the COA said could have been used for “other programs and projects of the government.”
