Ilang araw bago ang kanyang states of the nation address o Sona ay iniharap ng pangulong Benigno Aquino III sa media ang ulat na kung saan ay napagalaman na malubhang naantala ang palalabas ng Department of Budget and Management o (DBM) ng  pondo para sa Yolanda sa mga ahensya at mga local na pamahalaan na nagpapatupad nito.napagalaman ng grupo na  hindi  ito nakalaan sa  Yolanda ngunit para lamang sa mga apektadong lugar at kabilang na dito ang mga tinamaan ng lindol sa Bohol at bagyong Sendong at Pablo. Mayroong 73,000 ang mga yunit ng pabahay sa labas at mayroong 205, 128 ang mga kinakailangan at kasalukuyang binubuo.

Ang laki ng pondo na  pinadala  para sa  Emergency Shelter Assistance (ESA) ay binalita ng local na gobyerno  noong June 30, 2015 ngunit hindi nakuha sa mga nakalaang beneficiaries. Ibinalita ng SWP na tratuhin ng mga pulitiko ang paghahatid ng ESA bilang isang simulain upang makakuha ng bentahe sa pulitika. (Rhea Razon)
