BOGOR - The Regent of Bogor, West Java, Ade Yasin invited all members of the legislature in his region to unite in overcoming a budget deficit of Rp. 794 billion in the Revised APBD Draft for the 2021 fiscal year.
"In the discussion of the revised RAPBD later, it is hoped that the executive and legislature can jointly focus on efforts to close the deficit from reducing apparatus expenditure," he said after a plenary meeting on the agenda for submitting the Draft Regional Regulation (Raperda) on changes to the 2021 APBD in Cibinong, Bogor, Monday. .
According to him, efforts to close the deficit can be done by reducing the official travel budget, spending on stationery, printing prints, duplicating purchases, shopping for food and drinks, spending on space rental, maintenance spending, and spending on personnel operations.
Responding to this, the Deputy Chairman of the Bogor Regency DPRD, Muhammad Romli, said that the legislature would perform the same efficiency as the executive to cover the deficit.
"Yes, it's the same (efficiency). Because the deficit is high at IDR794 billion, we cut activities that are less urgent, as well as business trips," he said. The reason is, in the draft amendment to the APBD there is still a deficit of Rp. 794 billion.
Regional revenue, which was originally estimated at IDR 6.7 trillion, is proposed to be increased to IDR 7.7 trillion, so that there is an increase of IDR 1.3 trillion or 9.18 percent from the original plan.
There was an increase and decrease in the regional income component originating from several components, such as the Regional Original Income (PAD) component which was originally planned to be worth Rp. 2.7 trillion, which increased by Rp. 270 billion, to Rp. 2.9 trillion.
Then, the transfer income component is planned to be worth Rp. 4.7 trillion, an increase of Rp. 702 billion from the target before the change of Rp. 4.4 trillion. The last component is other legitimate income, which is planned to be worth Rp. 30 billion, from what was not originally budgeted.
The increase in regional income was accompanied by an increase in regional spending which was originally budgeted at Rp. So that the total regional expenditure in the APBD changes is Rp. 8.9 trillion.
Thus, there was an increase in the deficit, which was originally planned for Rp. 930 billion, to Rp. 1.1 trillion. Meanwhile, net financing is the difference between financing receipts and financing expenditures, which decreased by IDR543 billion, so that the net financing, which was originally budgeted at IDR930 billion, became IDR376.9 billion.
In accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations in the field of state or regional finance, the regional expenditure deficit must be covered by net financing so that in the draft amendment to the APBD there is still a deficit of IDR 794.1 billion.
