ANNEX A
Online Workshop Options (Modalities)
General Notes
1. Regardless of the modality, participants must understand that the activity is not a seminar where they
will only be listening. Rather, there will be workshops that will require them to interact and produce
outputs. Thus, they must commit to be present throughout the whole process. Online participants cannot
be away from keyboard (AFK) for extended periods or be IAM (in another meeting).
2. Equipment and set-up requirements have to be arranged and tested before the start of the activity.
3. Safety and security measures need to be introduced and applied. Aside from those that are pandemic-
oriented (i.e., physical distancing, the wearing of facemasks and shields, and frequent hand sanitizing,
etc.) participants should also be reminded not to be indiscriminate in sharing meeting IDs and passwords
and folder URLs.
4. In creating breakout rooms, the technical support team should set it up so that participants are
automatically transferred once breakout rooms are opened. Also, participants should be allowed to go
back to the main room in case there are concerns. There has to be a technical person left in the main room
who can add participants who have been logged out back into their rooms.
5. The overall facilitator can either be made host so he/she can enter the breakout groups at will and
monitor progress. As an alternative, the host can move the overall facilitator to a breakout room upon
request. It is not advised that the overall facilitator also handle a breakout group.
6. The breakout facilitators and documentors will need to be in touch with the overall facilitator and
documentor/s. One way to do this is through the creation of group chats (GC) in social media apps such
as Viber or Messenger.

Page 2 of 5BACKGROUND
This Coaches Guide (the Guide for brevity) was developed to assist DILG local
coaches and the Local Government Unit Devolution Transition Committee (LGU
DTC) plan for the devolution transition activities and prepare the Devolution
Transition Plan (DTP) of the LGUs as it fully assumes the functions, services, and
facilities to be fully devolved by NGAs concerned starting in FY 2021 until FY 2024.
This Guide is based on the Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) to be issued by the
Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and the Department of
Budget and Management (DBM).
The Guide consists of three (3) parts:
Chapter I: Preparing the DTP, which provides detailed instructions on how DILG
coaches and members of LGU DTC will be able to accomplish the requirements of
the DTP.
Chapter II: Approval of LGU DTP, which describes the policy support needed from
the LGU to adopt the DTP and to ensure that the content of the DTP is mainstreamed
in the development plan and investment programs of the LGU.
Chapter III: Submission of LGU DTP, which informs the LGU DTC on the timeline
and mechanisms for submission of the DTP.
This Guide assumes that preparatory activities have been conducted and the
following requisites or conditions are already in place, or complied with, such as the
following:
1. The DILG Memorandum providing guidance on the FY 2021 multi-level activities

for the preparation of DTPs by LGUs which among other things, direct LGUs to
organize their respective DTCs, have been issued.
2. The Local Chief Executive (LCE) has organized the LGU’s respective DTCs with
the following suggested minimum composition:
For the provinces, cities, and municipalities (P/C/M):

a) The LCE as Chair;
b) A regular member of the Local Sanggunian;
c) Members of the Local Finance Committee (Planning and Development
Coordinator, Treasurer, Budget Officer);
d) Local Administrator;
e) President of the Liga ng mga Barangay; and
f) Two (2) representatives from civil society organizations (CSOs) and
people’s organizations (POs) that are members of the Local
Development Council (LDC).
For the barangays, the suggested minimum composition of DTC is as

follows: a) Punong Barangay as Chair;
b) Barangay Secretary;
c) Barangay Treasurer;
d) A regular member of the Sangguniang Barangay;
Page 3 of 53
e) At least two (2) representatives from CSOs and POs that are members
of the Barangay Development Council.
3. The DILG National and Regional Orientations on LGU DTPs have been conducted,
and members of the DILG Provincial Devolution Core Teams (DCT) and P/C/M
DTCs have attended at least the regional orientation conducted by DILG Regional
Offices (ROs).
4. Lastly, DTPs of National Government Agencies (NGAs) concerned, if available, are

accessible or shared by NGAs with LGUs to use as reference during the
preparation of their DTP.
CHAPTER I: PREPARING THE DEVOLUTION TRANSITION PLAN
This chapter consists of three (3) parts: a) onsite orientation and workshop on the
LGU DTP which is a preliminary activity to the plan preparation, b) the interface
activities between province and cities/municipalities and between the
city/municipality and the barangays, and c) the DTP preparation proper.
Helpful Hints
Before the LGU prepare the DTP, here are some helpful hints to ensure a smooth
start.
❖ Hold an orientation or briefing to the internal (i.e., LGU offices concerned) and
external (i.e., CSOs, POs) LGU stakeholders prior to DTP preparation to bring
everyone on board. This ensures clarity of purpose and the same level of
understanding among the LGU stakeholders of their roles and what are
expected of them.
❖ Consolidate information/data gaps prior to interacting with NGAs concerned.

Part of the orientation/briefing with LGU stakeholders is to gather information
or data gaps which may be coming from NGAs concerned.
❖ Do a fair amount of preparatory work especially with NGAs concerned. This

includes gathering referenced documents indicated in the various sections of
this Guide and the information gaps coming from the orientation with LGU
stakeholders, and hosting discussions with NGAs concerned on their
devolution
transition activities in the LGU.
❖ Provide a clear timeline for sharing/submission of documents. This is not only

with respect to forms to be filled out by LGU concerned offices but also with
referenced documents or information to be shared by NGAs concerned which
are important for LGU concerned offices to move forward with the DTP
preparation.
Page 4 of 53
❖ The DTP preparation requires participation and involvement of relevant
stakeholders. While the LGU DTC provides the structure and sets up the
motion so that the LGU offices concerned is able to accomplish the various
forms/attachments within the prescribed timeline, it is the responsibility of LGU
offices concerned to ensure that appropriate consultations are conducted, and
stakeholders’ inputs are reflected in their accomplished forms/attachments,
prior to submitting it to DTC for consolidation.
Part A: Onsite Orientation and Workshop on the LGU DTP
As the LGU transitions to full devolution, the first step towards getting the full support
and cooperation of all its internal stakeholders is for them to have the appreciation of
the full devolution and of the LGU DTP.
The DILG through the Provincial DCT organizes the initial onsite
Provincial/City/Municipal/Barangay Workshops to further orient other LGU officials
and stakeholders on the DTP content and processes and assist the LGU commence
the preparation of the DTPs.
Questions on “what is”, “why”, “when”, “who is responsible”, and “how” are important
to be clarified and addressed during the on-site orientation and workshop.
What does the orientation aim to achieve?
• For LGU stakeholders to have a shared understanding of the rationale,

requirements, and the processes for preparing the LGU DTPs.
• For LGU stakeholders to articulate their commitments to support and assist in
the various stages of the DTP preparation.
• For the provinces, cities, and municipalities to formulate their schedule and plan
of action.
• Initiate the actual drafting of LGU DTPs for provinces, cities, and municipalities.
Who should be in the orientation?
1. LCE What shall be discussed in the orientation:

2. Vice Governor/Vice Mayor 4. LGU Department/Office Heads and their

prescribed DTP Forms
The orientation shall also highlight the following:
✓ The composition and roles and responsibilities of the LGU DTC and the crucial
role of other governance stakeholders such as the non-government
organizations in the plan preparation.
✓ The available technical assistance from field offices of NGAs (e.g., DBM,
Department of Finance – Bureau of Local Government Finance [DOF-BLGF],
Civil Service Commission [CSC], National Economic and Development
Authority [NEDA]) as the LGU prepare their DTPs.
✓ The importance of the relevance and applicability of NGAs programs, projects

and activities (PPAs) along the devolved functions and services to foster the
alignment of priorities and complementation of resources with NGAs
concerned.

Following the series of orientations and workshops, it is assumed that P/C/M/B DTCs
are ready to prepare the LGU DTP.
At this point the DILG Provincial DCT and the City/Municipal Local Government
Operations Officers (C/MLGOOs) will assume a supporting role by assisting in the
coordination and linking the province/city/municipality with NGAs concerned as
necessary.
In the case of the barangays, the C/MLGOOs will continue to provide support such as
facilitating the filling out of the three (3) attachments to be accomplished by the
barangays and assisting the City/Municipal DTCs in the conduct of
Barangay/City/Municipal DTP Interfacing Activities.
Follow through coaching and mentoring sessions shall be provided by the

Regional/Provincial/City/Municipal Coaches until completion of the LGU DTPs.
Part B: Interfacing Activities
While the LGU prepares the DTP, series of interface activities between the province
and its component cities/municipalities, and between the city/municipality and its
component barangays shall be conducted to facilitate complementation and ensure
the vertical linkage of higher-tier LGUs with their component LGUs.
Page 8 of 53
The Provincial DTC takes the lead in the conduct of the two phases (1 and 2) of
interfacing activities in coordination with the C/M DTC and concerned DILG Field
Office.
Similarly, the City/Municipal DTC in coordination with the DTCs of its component
barangays and concerned DILG Field Office shall facilitate the conduct of the two
phases (1 and 2) of interfacing activities.
The proposed agenda for the interfacing activities are as follows: City/Municipal-

Page 10 of 53
Part C: The LGU DTP
This section of the Guide elaborates on the following:
a) The content of the six components of the DTP, as shown below:
State of Devolved Functions, Facilities* Structure and Strategy

Services, and Capacity Staffing Performance
Facilities* Development Pattern Targets for
Phasing of Agenda and Local Revenue Devolved
Assumption of Requirements* Forecast and Functions and
Functions, Resource Services
Organizational
Services, and Mobilization
*Applicable for barangays
b) The corresponding forms and attachments to be accomplished. c) The data

and information that members of the DTC shall collect and make available to
support the analysis and narratives of the DTP.
d) The references the DTC may benefit from.
This particular section of the Guide is organized and mirrors the prescribed structure
or outline specified in Annex B of the JMC on the Guidelines in the Preparation of
LGU DTPs to be issued by the DILG and the DBM.
Message from the Local Chief Executive
As in any other documents and plans prepared by the LGUs, the DTP shall have this
section on the first page of the DTP, following the Table of Contents. The Message of
the Local Chief Executive is important because it communicates to the LGU
stakeholders and the public the intentions of the LGU to implement the transition to
full devolution. The message shall be able to convey also to the public the purpose
and the use of the DTP, which are as follows:
• The serve as the roadmap for the LGU to ensure a strategic, systematic, and
coherent actions towards its full assumption of devolved functions and
services starting in FY 2022.
• As benchmark in monitoring the progress of the LGU’s full assumption of

devolved responsibilities.
• As a primary consideration in the formulation of future local development plans

and investment programs, and in the implementation of priority PPAs relative
to the devolved functions and services.
Page 11 of 53
• As basis for establishing partnerships and cooperative undertakings with
national government agencies, and other governance stakeholders such as
the NGOs, CSOs, POs, business sector, and academic institutions.
Sangguniang Panlalawigan / Panlungsod /Bayan / Barangay Resolution

Approving the LGU DTP
The LGU DTP shall be approved by the Local Sanggunian through a Resolution,
before it is submitted to city/municipality in the case of the barangays, and to the
province in the case of component cities/municipalities.
While no financial resources or budget is required from the LGU to commit at this
point, the Local Sanggunian Resolution symbolizes the broad support for the LGU
DTP.
Quick Facts About the LGU
This section provides the snapshot of the LGU in terms of numbers.
The following information which can be taken from the City/Municipal Comprehensive
Development Plan (CDP) or the Provincial Development and Physical Framework
Plan (PDPFP), provides a good introduction about the LGU:
• Geographic profile (e.g., political subdivisions, land area)

• Demographic (e.g., population, population annual growth rate, household
population, household number, population density, barangay with highest
population and barangay with lowest population, etc.)
• Social profile (e.g., educational, health and security facilities, broken down into
public and private and by level or classification)
• Economic profile (e.g., no. of registered business establishments, LGU income,
LGU National Tax Allotment [NTA], employment, etc.)
Presenting the above information thru maps and other forms of visuals makes the
DTP more interesting to the readers.
Section 1: State of Devolved Functions, Services, and Facilities
This section describes the state of devolved responsibilities in the LGU and how the
increase in the just share of LGUs and the full devolution of functions, services, and
facilities by the NGAs concerned will affect the operations and service modalities of
the LGUs. Below are some focus questions to help the LGU describe this section.
• What devolved functions, services, and facilities are already implemented or

performed by the LGU?
• Which of these devolved responsibilities are considered to be the priority/ies of

the LGU, and why?
Page 12 of 53
• Which of the programs/projects/activities along devolve responsibilities
implemented by the LGU are already making headways in terms of delivering
results?
• Are there devolved responsibilities that have yet to be fully assumed by the
LGU? If there are, what are these responsibilities?
• What are some of the reasons why the LGU were not able to assume these
responsibilities or implement the PPAs along these devolved responsibilities?
• Are there emerging good/unique practices that the LGU is happy to include in
their DTP?
Preparing Attachments 1-A and 1-B: Inventory of LGU Functions, Services

and Facilities (Annexes E-1 and E-2)
The LGU DTC examines which of the functions, services, and facilities that have
been assigned or devolved to LGUs under Section 17 of the 1991 Local Government
Code (LGC) and by other subsequent laws are already carried out by the LGU, and
which of these have yet to be fully assumed by the LGU in reference to the DTPs of
NGAs concerned, if available, and their consultations with the LGU.
For provinces/cities/municipalities:
❖ The P/C/M DTC facilitates a process where LGU concerned offices shall
prepare Attachment 1-A: Inventory of LGU Functions, Services and
Facilities for Provinces/Cities/Municipalities (Annex E-1) either by office or
by cluster of offices to establish the information on all devolved functions,
services and facilities that are being implemented by the LGU and those that
the LGU have yet to fully assume.
❖ The Provincial/City/Municipal Planning and Development Coordinator

(P/C/MPDC) consolidates and validates the information submitted by the LGU
offices; prepares one consolidated Attachment 1-A (Annex E-1) for the LGU;
and submits it to the Administrator for review and to ensure that the form is
properly filled out.
❖ The Provincial/City/Municipal Administrator submits Attachment 1-A (Annex

E-1) to the Governor/Mayor for approval.
❖ The Governor/Mayor approves Attachment 1-A (Annex E-1).
❖ The P/C/M DTC through the Planning and Development Coordinator drafts the
section on State of Devolved Functions, Services, and Facilities of the
DTP.
For barangays:
❖ The Barangay DTC facilitates a process where barangay officials and other
stakeholders in consultation with city/municipal offices concerned prepares
Page 13 of 53
Attachment 1-B: Inventory of LGU Functions, Services, and Facilities for
Barangays (Annex E-2).
❖ The Barangay DTC through the Barangay Secretary consolidates the outputs
on Attachment 1-B (Annex E-2) and submits it to the Punong Barangay for
review and approval.
❖ The Punong Barangay approves Attachment 1-B (Annex E-2) and submits it
to the Sangguniang Barangay for approval together with Attachment 2-B:
Phasing of Full Assumption of Devolved Functions, Services, and
Facilities for Barangays (Annex F-2) and Attachment 3-B: Capacity
Development Requirements for Barangays (Annex G-2). The three (3)
attachments, taken together, constitutes the Barangay DTP.

Section 2: Phasing of Full Assumption of Devolved Functions, Services, and
Facilities
This section presents the functions, services, and facilities to be fully devolved by
NGAs concerned to the LGUs, the phasing and full assumptions by the LGU of the
devolved responsibilities, and the implications of these fully assumed responsibilities
to the LGU organizational structure and staffing pattern and capacity development
requirements.
In determining the fully devolved responsibilities critical to the LGU, and in phasing of
their full assumption of these devolved responsibilities, the LGU may consider the
following factors in their decision-making:
❖ Development issues arising in the locality/priority needs of LGU constituents;
❖ Human resource capacity of the LGU to implement the responsibilities to be

fully devolved;
❖ LGU fiscal resources to fund the responsibilities to be fully devolved; and
❖ Availability of external technical support (e.g., NGAs, NGOs, academe).
Alternatively, the LGU may also apply the following suggested tests to assess the
practicality and viability of its decision 1, and provide the foundation for their narrative
under this section.

Devolved Functions, Services and Facilities (Annexes F-1 and F-2)
The LGU DTC in consultation with LGU offices concerned revisits the DTPs of NGAs
concerned if available, maps out the responsibilities to be fully devolved by NGAs
concerned and determines which of these are crucial or of high importance to the
LGU by applying the tests above.
❖ The P/C/M DTC facilitates a process where LGU concerned offices shall
prepare the Attachment 2-A: Phasing of Full Assumption of Devolved
Functions, Services, and Facilities for Provinces/Cities/Municipalities
(Annex F-1) either by office or by cluster of offices to establish the information
on all functions, services, and facilities to be fully assumed by the LGU.
❖ The P/C/MPDC consolidates and validates the functions, services, and facilities
to be fully assumed by the LGU as submitted by the LGU concerned offices vis a

consolidated Attachment 2-A (Annex F-1) for the LGU; and submits it to the
Administrator for review and to ensure that the form is properly filled out.
❖ The Provincial/City/Municipal Administrator submits Attachment 2-A (Annex

F-1) to the Governor/Mayor for approval.
❖ The Governor/Mayor approves Attachment 2-A (Annex F-1).
❖ The P/C/M DTC through the Planning and Development Coordinator drafts the
DTP section on Phasing of Full Assumption of Devolved Functions,
Services, and Facilities.

Section 3: CapDev Agenda
This section shall describe the capacity development requirements of the LGU to
absorb, manage, and sustain the responsibilities under a fully devolved set-up.
Following the DILG MC No. 2021-067, and using the capacity development pillars
which the DILG – Local Government Academy (LGA) uses as framework for
assessing LGU capacity development requirements, the DTC identifies the LGU
capacity building needs in reference to:
❖ The phased assumption by the LGU of the functions, services, and facilities to
be fully devolved by NGAs concerned.
❖ The capacity development requirements for functions, services, and facilities,

along with the programs, projects and activities contained in NGA DTPs, if
available.
❖ Other capacity development requirements indicated in Attachment 6: Local

Revenue Forecast and Resource Mobilization Strategy, and Attachment
7: Performance Monitoring Framework.
Preparing Attachments 3-A and 3-B: Capacity Development Agenda

(Annexes G-1 and G-2).
In consultation with LGU concerned offices, the LGU DTC together with the Technical
Working Group on Capacity Development Agenda (CapDev TWG) revisits the
functions, services, and facilities to be fully devolved by NGAs concerned; and
following the CapDev assessment process prescribed by DILG-LGA, identify the
capacity development requirements covering FY 2022-2024 needed by the LGU to
fully assume these devolved responsibilities by 2024.
The LGU DTC and the CapDev TWG likewise ensures that LGU offices concerned
include their prioritized capacity development requirements in their AIP.
❖ The LGU DTC through the CapDev TWG prepares Attachment 3-A: Capacity
Development Agenda for Provinces/Cities/Municipalities (Annex G-1) and
submits it to the Governor/Mayor.
❖ The Governor/Mayor approves Attachment 3-A (Annex G-1).
❖ The P/C/M Head of the CapDev TWG with support from other TWG members
drafts the Section on CapDev Agenda in the DTP.
Page 27 of 53
For barangays:
❖ The DTC assesses the annual capacity building requirements of the barangay
covering FY 2022-2024 with reference to the responsibilities it will fully assume
and in consideration of their phasing strategy. The Barangay Secretary
consolidates the assessment results and prepares Attachment 3-B: Capacity
Development Agenda for Barangays (Annex G-2) and submits it to the
Barangay Treasurer for the review of the financial requirements of the
proposed capacity development interventions.
❖ The Barangay Treasurer reviews Attachment 3-B (Annex G-2) and endorses
it for approval of the Punong Barangay.
❖ The Punong Barangay approves Attachment 3-B (Annex G-2) and submits it
to the Sangguniang Barangay for approval together with the two (2) other
forms Attachment 2-B (Annex F-2) and Attachment 1-B (Annex E-2), when
approved. The three (3) attachments, taken together, constitutes the Barangay
DTP.

Section 4: Proposed Changes to OSSP
This section describes the modification in the organizational structure and changes
in the staffing pattern of the province/city/municipality to increase its organizational
efficiency and capacity to fully assume the functions, services, and facilities to be
devolved by NGAs concerned.
In formulating their proposed OSSP, the P/C/M DTC shall be guided by the following:
❖ The LGU’s phased assumption of functions, services, and facilities to be fully

devolved by NGAs concerned;
❖ The recommended organizational structure and staffing complement for

devolved responsibilities as recommended by NGAs concerned in their NGA
DTP, if available;
❖ The result of the LGU capacity assessment for LGU CapDev Agenda;
❖ Section 325 (a) to (g) of Republic Act (RA) No. 7160 providing limitations on the
use of LGUs funds;
❖ DBM Local Budget Circular (LBC) No. 61 Index of Occupational Services,

Position Titles and Salary Grades in the Local Government (IOS-LGU), CY
2021 Edition, dated 18 March 1996 as amended by DBM LBC No. 137, dated
13 June 2021;

Tax Allotment (NTA) Shares of Local Government Units (LGUs) and
Guidelines on the Preparation of the FY 2022 Annual Budgets of LGUs, dated
14 June 2021;
❖ CSC rules and regulations and related reference materials; and ❖ Such
additional issuances that the DILG, DBM, or CSC may thereafter issue.
To determine if there is a need to modify the LGU organizational structure, the P/C/M
DTC in consultation with LGU offices concerned shall:
❖ Review Existing Organizational Structure, Attachment 1-A (Annex E-1),

Attachment 2-A (Annex F-1) and Attachment 3-A (Annex G-1).
❖ Examine the applicability of the organizational structure for devolved

responsibilities recommended by NGAs concerned, as indicated in their DTPs,
if available.
Page 34 of 53
❖ Identify the appropriate changes (e.g., additional section, division, department)
to the existing organizational structure of the LGU to support the delivery and
implementation of devolved responsibilities
Should it be determined that a modification in the LGU organizational structure is

necessary, the LGU DTC together with LGU offices concerned shall also:
❖ Map out the functions and accountabilities of the new or additional unit/s.
❖ Assess the existing LGU staffing pattern in relation to the proposed adjustment
in the LGU organizational structure and the devolved responsibilities to be fully
assumed by the LGU.
❖ Determine the proposed positions to be created to support the proposed

organizational structure and the LGU’s full assumption of devolved
responsibilities.
❖ Provide justifications for each proposed position.
The P/C/M DTC may also request guidance from the local office of the CSC and the
DBM in preparing their OSSP.
Modifications in the OSSP shall be approved by the Local Sanggunian.
Where applicable, the LCE endorses to the appropriate CSC Field Office the
approved plantilla of positions within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of
approval of the adjusted OSSP for information and guidance in processing of
appointments and other personnel actions.

• The recommended organizational structure of NGAs concerned for devolved
functions, services, and facilities; and
• The implications of creating new units on the LGU budget.
❖ Should the P/C/M DTC determined the need to create new organizational units as
a result of the LGU’s full assumption of the devolved responsibilities, the HRMO
prepares Attachment 4: Proposed Modification to the LGU Organizational
Structure (Annex H) and submits it to the P/C/M Administrator (or any designees
of the Governor/Mayor) together with the following documents, for review:

Section 5: Local Revenue Forecast and Resource Mobilization
This section describes the performance of the LGU’s own-source revenues and the
measures the LGU will implement to unlock the potentials of these local revenue
sources to help address possible gaps in FYs 2023 and 2024 as a consequence of
the following:
❖ Increased expenditure requirements to support local economic recovery from

the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
❖ LGUs’ full assumption of devolved responsibilities.
❖ Anticipated decrease in their national tax allocation in FYs 2023 and 2024.
Using FY 2020 local revenue collection as baseline, the P/C/M DTC analyzes the
performance of their LGU’s own source revenues and prepares a three-year forecast
(FYs 2022 to 2024) for these key local revenue sources, i.e., taxes, fees and

to identify the performance indicators, establish baseline information and annual
targets from FY 2022-2024 for all devolved responsibilities carried out and to be
fully assumed by the LGU. The P/C/M DTC can do this by LGU office or by cluster
or related offices.
❖ LGU concerned offices prepare Attachment 7: Performance Monitoring

Framework (Annex K), using the sources cited above and other information they
may gather taking into consideration the existence or establishment of a
system /mechanism to monitor LGU performance.
❖ The P/C/MPDC consolidates and validates the information submitted by the LGU
