YOGYAKARTA How much is the assistance fund for political parties every year? It is known that the Government through the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) provides political party financial assistance to PDIP as much as Rp28 billion.

The Director General of Politics and General Government of the Ministry of Home Affairs Bahtiar handed over the funds after he and Megawati signed documents at the Internal Organization Consolidation Meeting at the Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, Monday, July 31, 2023.

For information, financial assistance for political parties is financial assistance sourced from the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) / Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBD) which is given proportionally to political parties that get seats in the House of Representatives, Provincial Regional House of Representatives, and the Regency/City Regional House of Representatives whose calculations are based on the number of votes.

Providing financial assistance to political parties is regulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs (Permendagri) Number 36 of 2018 concerning Procedures for Calculation, Budgeting in Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budgets, and Orderly Administration of Submission, Distribution, and Accountability Reports for the Use of Political Party Financial Assistance.

Dalam beleid tersebut dikatakan bahwa bantuan keuangan kepada parpol digunakan sebagai dana pendukung kegiatan pendidikan politik dan operasional sekretariat partai politik.

The amount of financial assistance provided by the government to political parties is based on the number of valid votes obtained from the DPR, Provincial DPRD, and Regency/City DPRD elections.

The number of votes obtained by the DPR Election is based on the results of the nationally valid vote count set by the General Elections Commission (KPU).
