The House of Representatives (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat – “DPR”) has prepared a Draft Bill (“Draft Bill”) on One Data Indonesia (Satu Data Indonesia – “SDI”), which would elevate the SDI framework currently set out in Regulation of the President No. 39 of 2019 on SDI (“Regulation 39/2019”) to the statutory level.[1] The Draft Bill was approved by the DPR for enactment into law during a plenary session on 6 October 2026, although this analysis is based on the version of the Draft Bill available to Hukumonline at the time of writing.[2]
