DPR Legislation Body Adds 5 Draft Bills to Prolegnas, Here is the List
Jakarta – The DPR Legislation Body (Baleg DPR) has added five draft laws (RUU) to the 2026 Priority National Legislation Programme (Prolegnas). The addition is based on the results of revisions agreed upon after discussions with the government and the Regional Representative Council (DPD) RI in a working meeting at the parliamentary complex in Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday, 15 April 2026. “That is what we have agreed together, which we will certainly read out in the upcoming plenary session,” said the Chairman of Baleg DPR RI, Bob Hasan. The five additions in question include, among others, the RUU on Housing and Settlement Areas. This RUU was originally a government initiative proposal and has now been changed to a DPR initiative proposal. Next, the RUU on Broadcasting, the RUU on the Curator Profession, and the RUU on Amendments to Law Number 32 of 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management, all of which are DPR initiative RUUs. The other addition is the Auction RUU, which is a government initiative. This RUU has undergone a nomenclature change from the previous “Asset Auction” to “Auction”. In addition, Baleg in that meeting also changed the nomenclature and status of several RUUs that have entered the 2026 Priority Prolegnas list. The changes include, among others, the title of the RUU on Customary Legal Communities changed to the RUU on Indigenous Peoples. Meanwhile, the RUU on Narcotics and Psychotropics has been changed to a DPR initiative proposal. “The RUU on Narcotics and Psychotropics, which was originally a government initiative proposal, has become a DPR initiative proposal, yes, in the second amendment RUU for the 2026 priority,” said Bob. He further explained that the adjustment to the 2026 Priority Prolegnas list aims to ensure that the legislative work focus is more realistic and can be achieved maximally. “This step aims to resynchronise the direction of national legislation with the latest legal dynamics and urgent needs in society,” he said.
