According to him, the agenda for the inauguration of elected candidates for members of the DPR and DPD is still part, stages, and election programs from the KPU.

"The agenda related to the inauguration of elected DPR members and DPD members is still part, stages and programs for elections," he said.

In addition, he said the KPU would also hand over the elected candidates for members of the DPR and DPD to the Secretariat General of the DPR, DPD, and MPR shortly before the inauguration on Tuesday (1/10) tomorrow.

"Given the large number of members of the DPR and DPD, the KPU divides it into three locations as registration locations and stays. As well as preparation for a clean rehearsal for the inauguration which will be held on October 1, 2024," he explained.

Previously, Betty said the KPU provided luxury facilities for five-star hotels for 580 elected candidates before participating in the inauguration. The stay facilities are provided from Sunday (29/9) to Tuesday (1/10).

"We need to convey that starting tonight we have prepared lodging at three hotels," said Betty at the Lemhannas Building, Jakarta, Sunday.

"I have to say this, at the Hotel Or Fairmont or Shangri-La to prepare for the inauguration on October 1, 2024," he said.
