- The Chairperson of the Indonesian House of Representatives (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat – "DPR") Legislative Body, Supratman Andi Agtas ("Chairman"), has issued a statement confirming that the 2023 Priority National Legislation Program (Program Legislasi Nasional – "Prolegnas") has been prepared and is the result of an agreement between the DPR’s Legislative Body, the government and the Law Drafting Committee (Panitia Perancang Undang Undang - "PPUU") at the Regional Representatives Council (Dewan Perwakilan Daerah – "DPD").
- In his statement, the Chairman emphasized that any draft bills that had been proposed by any of three institutions (DPR, DPD and/or the government) had all been well accommodated, provided that the relevant proposals had been submitted along with their academic scripts and drafts.
- Furthermore, the Head of the 2023 Priority Prolgenas Task Committee (Panitia Kerja – "Panja"), Willy Aditya, has also issued a statement affirming that 38 draft bills have now been incorporated into the 2023 Priority Prolgenas and meet parameters previously set by the government and the DPD’s PPUU.
- The above-mentioned parameters break down as follows: 1) Draft bills that have been incorporated into the level I deliberation phase; 2) Draft bills that are awaiting the issuance of Presidential Letters; 3) Draft bills that have been harmonized, rounded off (pembulatan) and conceptually perfected by the DPR’s Legislative Body; 4) Draft bills that are currently in process in terms of the matters listed in point (3) above; and 5) Draft bills that are listed on the waiting list and new draft bill proposals for the 2020 - 2024 Prolegnas, as well bills that are urgently required.
- Indonesia’s Minister of Law and Human Rights, Yasonna Hamonangan Laoly, has urged relevant stakeholders, especially the DPR and DPR, to fully commit to completing any outstanding processes in order to ensure that the draft bills that feature on the 2023 Priority Prolgenas list are effectively and efficiently planned and deliberated.
