Dear MR. BALASSU:

This has reference to your letter recieved by our office through Electronic Freedom of Information (eFOI) Portal, requesting burial assistance for your mother who died from Cerebrovascular Accident, CAP-Moderate Risk, COVID suspect, and Hypertension.

In this regard, may we inform you that based on the review and assessment
conducted by the Freedom and Information (FOI) Officers, the said request has been denied on the basis that the request is not for information but rather a 
request for burial assistance. Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016 only applies to request of information that the government possesses and has custody of.

Further, the grant of burial assistance is not within the mandate of the agency.
Nevertheless, may we recommend that the request be directed to the Department of Social Welfare and Development(DSWD) which has programs that provide financial assistance for disadvantaged families.

In accordance with the FOI Act, we wish to offer further assistance to your request. should you wish to discuss the above please contact us at telephone number -362-0220 or visit us at 9/F Sunnymede IT Center, 1614 Quezon  Avenue South Triangle, Quezon City.
