This is in reference with AOM No. DepEd DO-ZDS-2022-11(2021) dtd February 14, 2022 received by this
office regarding School Buildings of DepEd - Division of Zamboanga del Sur which remained uninsured with

the Budget Preparation for FY 2022, this office has proposed budget allocation for the insurance premiums of
School Buildings of DepEd-ZDS, but unfortunately it was not included in the National Expenditure Program

allocation and be protected against fire, earthquake, typhoon and other unforeseen events.

Very truly yours,
