                    [Summary] => Rising debt service cost has forced the Development Budget Coordinating Committee (DBCC) to implement even deeper cuts in government spending in an attempt to prevent a deficit blow-out. 


Budget Secretary Emilia Boncodin said yesterday that based on early indications, there would be a significant increase in interest payments because of rising interest rates.

Since the budget allocation for debt service will end up eating more than expected for 2004, Boncodin said there was a need to implement even more cuts in government spending for the rest of the year.
