Additional Regional Transfer Funds in Dairi Must Deliver Impact, Task Force Opens Consultations and Prepares Reporting Format
The Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Acceleration Task Force (Satgas PRR) continues to oversee the accelerated utilisation of additional Regional Transfers (TKD) in Dairi Regency to ensure it serves as a recovery programme that provides real benefits to the community.
This commitment was highlighted during an assistance session for the management of additional TKD held at the Dairi Regent’s Office Pendopo on Tuesday, 30 June 2026. The event brought together members of the PRR Task Force, the Directorate General of Regional Financial Management of the Ministry of Home Affairs, and the Dairi Regency Government.
The Secretary of the Directorate General of Regional Financial Management, Maurits Panjaitan, stated that the central government has prepared assistance for local regions to ensure programme implementation complies with regulations. Therefore, local governments should not hesitate to seek consultation and aid. “Please do, we are ready with a team to explain,” said Maurits.
Maurits reminded that the success of utilising additional TKD is not only measured by the amount of budget absorbed but also by the results felt by the community. Every activity must be able to demonstrate clear outputs and achievements so that the benefits of using state funds can be measured objectively. “The programmes must be checked from the perspective of output or achievement,” he said.
Local governments are also obligated to submit periodic progress reports on programme implementation. These reports serve as an important instrument for the central government to monitor programme realisation and evaluate the effectiveness of fund usage. “Remember, there is an obligation for us to report periodically,” he added.
To maintain accountability, the Ministry of Home Affairs has prepared a standardised reporting format to facilitate the monitoring and evaluation process of additional TKD implementation across various regions.
The Regent of Dairi, Vickner Sinaga, stated that the local government is ready to follow up on the various inputs provided during the assistance session. He also requested that all Regional Government Organisations (OPD) be more disciplined in submitting programme implementation reports. “One of the most frequent lapses is reporting. Ensure that you report periodically,” said Vickner.
Dairi Regency has received an allocation of additional TKD amounting to IDR 120.31 billion to support accelerated development and recovery in the region. The funds are allocated across several sectors, including health at IDR 7.11 billion, infrastructure at IDR 64.19 billion, agriculture at IDR 0.35 billion, and other affairs at IDR 48.41 billion.
All details regarding the budget utilisation for the 2026 Fiscal Year have been finalised and officially established through Regent Regulation (Perbup) No. 8/2026.
