Evaluated By The Ministry Of Home Affairs, The DKI BTT Budget For 2023 Will Increase By IDR 220 Billion

JAKARTA - The DKI Provincial Government and the DKI Jakarta DPRD have agreed to increase the nominal expenditure budget for unexpected (BTT) in the 2023 budget year APBD. BTT was originally set at IDR 648 billion, then increased by IDR 220 billion to IDR 868 billion.Head of the DKI Regional Financial Management Agency (BPKD) Michael Rolandi Cesnanta Brata explained that this adjustment was made after the draft regional regulation draft (RAPERda) of the 2023 DKI Regional Budget was evaluated by the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri).The Ministry of Home Affairs assesses that the 2023 DKI BTT of IDR 648 billion is still considered very small and not commensurate with the projected DKI regional expenditure value of IDR 74.3 trillion.One of the additional budgets for BTT will be taken from programs not listed in the work plan and KUA-PPAS draft APBD for the 2023 fiscal year amounting to IDR 220.8 billion."After we combed it and looked back, there were indeed new activities in capital expenditures that were not in the RKPD and KUA-PPAS. We will transfer it to unexpected spending," Michael said in his statement, quoted Friday, December 30.Then, the Ministry of Home Affairs asked DKI not to budget for multi-year activities or exceed the fiscal year. So, there is a budget of IDR 38.1 billion for the construction of the North Jakarta Transportation Sub-dept. office that was crossed out.“ multi-year activities must pay attention to the governor's term of office. Incidentally, currently held by Pj, it is considered valid for one year. So it cannot be multi-years, there is the construction of the Jakut Transportation Sub-Department which is evaluated, it cannot exceed the governor's term,” Michael said.From a number of shifts in budget activities, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government received a total addition of IDR 285.6 billion. However, the budget was cut by IDR 65.5 billion for the program to support the achievement of national development priorities in 2023 in the form of budget allocations for special allocation funds (DAK) for school operational assistance (BOS).Then, the PAUD and BOP Equivalence operational assistance (BOP) amounted to Rp25.5 billion, and the fulfillment of the budget allocation of the Regional Catholic Pesparani Development and Development Institute (LP3KD) amounting to Rp40 billion.“Total yang bisa dimasukkan dalam BTT awalnya sebesar 285,6 miliar dan dituncang Rp65,5 miliar. Jadi hanya bertambah Rp220,1 miliar, sehingga total BTT menjadi Rp868,6 miliar. Postur tidak berubah, hanya komposisi belanja yang berubah,” ungkap Michael.
