Thereupon, the latter shall undertake said public works projects to the full extent authorized by law oil submit monthly progress reports thereon to the President. If any such project cannot be undertaken, the Department of Public Works and Communications shall report the same to the President with a statement of the reasons for its inability to do the project.

If funds cannot be released, the Budget Commissioner shall report the same to the President with a statement of the reasons therefor and shall send copies thereof to the Department of Public Works and Communications and the Board of Investments.

4. In preparing public works bills to be submitted to Congress, the Department of Public Works and Communications and the Budget Commission shall, in consultation with the Board of Investments, include therein the public works projects necessary to make business operations in preferred areas feasible.
