Independent Commission for Infrastructure
The Independent Commission for Infrastructure is a five-member ad hoc fact-finding commission in the Philippines tasked with investigating flood control and other infrastructure projects implemented from 2015 onwards. It was established on September 11, 2025, through Executive Order No. 94.
The commissioners took their oath of office before Court of Appeals Justice Pedro Corales on September 15, 2025, formally commencing their tenure. The commission is supported by a secretariat that provides technical and administrative assistance, headed by an executive director with the rank of undersecretary under the direct supervision of the ICI chairperson.
Background
President Bongbong Marcos stated that the commission would operate independently and would not include politicians, as its investigation is primarily technical in nature. The ICI functions as an "investigative arm" of the administration, tasked with reviewing tips and complaints related to flood control and infrastructure projects.Its creation followed public concerns over alleged corruption in Department of Public Works and Highways projects, including flood control initiatives. The establishment of the ICI is part of Marcos' broader anti-corruption campaign, which he highlighted during his fourth State of the Nation Address in July 2025 and in subsequent congressional inquiries.
