KPU Removes Provisions For Campaign Fund Contribution Receipt Reports
ILLUSTRATION OF DOK VOI

The General Elections Commission (KPU) removed the bookkeeping provisions and submission of reports on receiving campaign donations (LPSDK) from election participants to the KPU for the 2024 General Election.

"LPSDK was removed because it was not regulated in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections (UU Pemilu)," said KPU member Idham Holik, at the Commission II Hearing Meeting (RDP) of the DPR, quoted by ANTARA, Monday, May 29.

Previously in the 2019 General Election, as stipulated in KPU Regulation (PKPU) Number 34 of 2018 concerning the Election Campaign Fund, the KPU required each election participant to submit LPSDK to them. However, for the 2024 General Election, the KPU removed the provisions in the PKPU Draft on Campaign Fund Reporting.

PKPU Number 34 of 2018 stipulates that participants of the 2019 Election are required to prepare bookkeeping for receiving campaign donations they received after the bookkeeping of initial campaign funds (LADK) and submit the report to the KPU according to its level.

Apart from being that LPSDK is not regulated in the Election Law, Idham also said that the KPU removed this provision because the 2024 election campaign period was shorter than the 2019 election campaign period which lasted for six months and three weeks.

The increasing campaign period has made it difficult to place the LPSDK delivery schedule. As regulated in Attachment I of PKPU Number 3 of 2022 concerning Stages and Schedules for the 2024 General Election, the campaign period for 75 days will start on November 28, 2023 and will end on February 10, 2024," he said.

Next, the KPU also decided to abolish the provisions for the submission of LPSDK by election participants because information regarding the receipt of campaign donations had been published in the LADK and reports of receiving campaign funds (LPPDK).

"The LPSDK information gained has been listed in LADK and LPPDK," said Idham.
