10 July 2025 – Ivana, Batanes. The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) – Batanes Provincial Statistical Office successfully presented the preliminary results of the 2024 Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) to the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Ivana in an official meeting held on 10 July 2025 at the Municipal Conference Hall, Ivana, Batanes. The presentation was attended by officials and employees from LGU Ivana, led by the Honorable Mayor Jerry A. Agana and Honorable Vice Mayor Henry E. Cabuco.

The activity aimed to provide local officials and stakeholders with a preview of key indicators generated from the recently concluded 2024 CBMS data collection. The presentation highlighted vital statistics related to basic services included in the household profile questionnaire. These basic services include public service provision systems that meet human basic needs such as access to drinking water, sanitation, hygiene, energy, transportation, waste management, health care, education, and information and communication technologies.

Mayor Jerry A. Agana extended a warm welcome to all the participants and recognized the importance in conducting the review of preliminary results. He also commended the PSA’s efforts and acknowledged the value of CBMS data in supporting development planning and resource allocation.

Chief Statistical Specialist Ramil G. Abad emphasized the importance of the CBMS in supporting evidence-based planning and policy formulation. “CBMS is an economic and social tool helpful for identifying vulnerable sectors in the communities and in providing information to enable a targeted approach in implementing poverty alleviation and development programs,” he stated.

The preliminary results will still be subject to validation and review before the ceremonial provincial turnover of CBMS data to the concerned LGUs. PSA Batanes remains committed to assisting LGU Ivana in the data utilization process, including capacity-building activities and technical support for policy use.

The CBMS is a flagship program under Republic Act No. 11315, also known as the Community-Based Monitoring System Act, which mandates regular and comprehensive data collection at the local level to aid in inclusive and data-driven governance.
