JAKARTA - The leadership of the DPR has determined the composition of the leadership and members of Commission XIII of the DPR. Chairman of Commission XIII of the DPR, Willy Aditya, said that his party was committed to building a spirit of cross-sectoral approach to dealing with legal and human rights problems.

"Together with fellow partners, we will try to build a collaborative spirit of cross-sectoral approach, because this is one spirit, namely protection of law enforcement and human rights," said Willy, Wednesday, October 23.

As is known, the DPR formed two new commissions, namely Commission XII and XIII, to align with cabinet nomenclatures from the government of President Prabowo Subianto and Vice President Gibran Ramabuming Raka.

During the current government period, Prabowo divided the Ministry of Law and Human Rights into three, namely the Ministry of Law, Ministry of Human Rights, and the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections (Impas) under one Coordinating Minister (Menko).

The House of Representatives Commission XIII will partner with the Ministry of Law, Ministry of Human Rights, Ministry of State Secretariat, Ministry of Immigration and Corrections, Komnas HAM, LPSK, BNPT, BPIP, Secretariat General of DPD RI, Secretariat General of MPR RI, and the Presidential Staff Office.

Overall, Commission XIII has a scope of work in the fields of law, human rights, institutional relations, as well as national and social life in general where in the previous DPR period the Ministry of Law and Human Rights partnered with Commission III.

In line with President Prabowo's mission to break up the Ministry of Law and Human Rights so that the Ministry's work is more focused, Willy said, the new AKD in charge of this field can also make the DPR more concerned in supervising the matters of Regulation and Human Rights Reform in Indonesia.

"We want in the future law enforcement and human rights protection to be one of the reasons for our process of state, nation and democracy," explained the legislator from the East Java XI electoral district.

Willy said that the division of the scope of work of commissions in the DPR in this period had been carried out effectively. According to him, additional commissions in the DPR are needed to make the work of legislative institutions more optimal.

"Of course this is a progressive thing, yes. In terms of management, the commission is divided into 13 and the Law-HAM in its own commission, it will focus more on the reach for supervision," said Willy.

In leading Commission XIII of the DPR, Willy will be accompanied by four representatives. Namely Andreas Hugo Pirerra (F-PDIP), Sugiat Santoso (F-Gerindra), Dewi Asmara (F-Golkar), and Rinto Subekti (F-Democrat).
