JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) requested an additional budget of IDR 1.3 trillion in a meeting with Commission III of the DPR which was held at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, today, Thursday, July 10.

KPK Chairman Setyo Budiyanto said, based on a joint letter from the Minister of Finance and the Minister of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency, the Indicative Ceiling for Expenditures of the Ministry of Institutions and Special Allocation Funds for Fiscal Year 2026, the KPK received an indicative ceiling allocation of Rp878.04 billion.

"The KPK indicative ceiling for Fiscal Year 2026 has decreased by Rp359.4 billion or decreased by 29 percent compared to DIPA for the 2025 fiscal year," said Setyo in a joint meeting with Commission III of the DPR, Thursday, July 10.

Setyo continued, the indicative ceiling allocation of Rp878.04 billion was all all allocated for management support programs that included some basic needs such as salaries and allowances, as well as office operations.

"Meanwhile, the budget for the implementation of the duties and authorities of the KPK in the corruption case prevention and prosecution program has not yet received a budget allocation or Rp. 0," he said.

Setyo revealed that the KPK in carrying out its duties requires real support in the DPR as a representative of the people, namely in the form of budget support in order to implement national priority output in achieving RKP 2026. As well as to carry out the duties and authorities of the KPK as mandated in Law Number 19 of 2019.

"For this reason, we propose an additional budget of Rp1.34 trillion for two programs, namely in the management support program, we need a budget of Rp1.36 trillion which has been allocated in an indicative ceiling of Rp878 billion, so that there is a budget shortage of Rp491.3 billion," said Setyo.

"Then in the corruption case prevention and prosecution program, we need a budget of IDR 856.6 billion which has not yet received an allocation in the indicative ceiling. So that the total KPK budget requirement for 2026 is IDR 2.226 trillion," he continued.

Setyo added that the additional budget requirement of IDR 1.34 trillion will be used for national priority activities, the implementation of KPK duties, as well as new and strategic initiatives to support national priorities.
