JAKARTA - Commission III of the DPR has approved an additional budget of Rp350 billion from the Rp400 billion proposed by the Attorney General's Office. The additional budget is to rebuild the Adhyaksa Corps building which was burned down on August 22nd.
This approval was given at the DPR Commission III Hearing Meeting with the Attorney General, the Chairperson of the Corruption Eradication Commission and the National Police Chief which was held online.
"Additional spending of Rp.350 billion, the APBN ceiling for 2021 was approved to be Rp9.593 trillion," said Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Adies Kadir, who chaired the meeting which was broadcast online on the DPR RI YouTube account, Monday, September 21.
Responding to the additional budget, Attorney General ST Burhanuddin expressed his gratitude. He said rebuilding their burnt building had become very important.
"The need for the construction of the main building is very urgent to be met because the fire caused serious damage to the building where the Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General work," said Burhanuddin who was present online.
However, he said an additional IDR 350 billion was estimated only to build the building, not including the interior. "And that has not been calculated by the Ministry of Public Works (Public Works and Public Housing, red) because only today the Ministry of Public Works is conducting an inspection whether this building can be used again or not," he said.
Previously, Deputy Attorney General Setia Untung Arimuladi proposed an additional budget of Rp400 billion. This addition was proposed to renovate their building which burned down some time ago.
He said that the construction of the main building needed to be done immediately so that their performance would not be hampered.
"The Attorney General's Office implies that Commission III of the House of Representatives can support and approve an additional budget in 2021 of Rp400 billion for the reconstruction of the main building," said Setia in a working meeting with Commission III of the Indonesian Parliament at the Parliament Building, Senayan, Jakarta, Monday, September 14. .
The Attorney General's Office building on Jalan Sultan Hasanudin Dalam 1, Jakarta caught fire on Saturday, August 22 and started at 19.10 WIB.
The part that was burned was the part of the Main Building which consisted of the staffing, training and intelligence rooms. This fire was investigated by Bareskrim Polri.
