Chairman of the Legislation Body (Baleg) of the House of Representatives Supratman Andi Agtas remarked the agreed results of the discussion of the DKJ Bill consisted of 12 chapters and 73 articles.Â
He explained that previously the Legislative Body of the Indonesian House of Representatives and the Government, represented by Minister of Home Affairs Tito Karnavian, had agreed to continue the discussion of the DKJ Bill at level II talks in the nearest DPR plenary meeting to be passed into law.
The agreement was made after eight factions in the Legislation Body agreed to continue the discussion of the DKJ Bill, while one faction rejected the discussion.
Meanwhile, when delivering his final opinion on behalf of the President, Minister of Home Affairs Tito Karnavian explained that the DKJ Bill is needed as a consequence of the birth of Law Number 21 of 2023 concerning amendments to Law Number 3 of 2022 concerning the National Capital City law.
The Jakarta Special Capital Region Law (DKJ) is an instrument to regulate Jakarta, which is no longer the capital of the country and has become a special region.
