Two laws passed by the House of Representatives (DPR) at the end of its members\' tenure are further indications of the true character of the DPR.

We hope that the eight MPR leaders will bring benefits to many people, and not simply in the parties’ representation. The position and role of the MPR has been very limited since the amendment to the 1945 Constitution.

The stipulation to add three deputy speaker seats at the People’s Consultative Assembly in MD3 Law indicates that the law was deliberated carelessly and could potentially violate a Constitutional Court ruling.

The addition of the number of deputy speakers in the legislative institutions will result in an increase in the budget burden, but it will not necessarily bring a positive impact on the performance of the institution.

Law No. 2/2018 on Legislative Institutions (MD3) is legally effective as of today. However, a number of elements of civil society continue to rally support for rejecting the revised law.

Today, the House can also ask for police assistance to forcibly summon those who have thrice failed to fulfill the House’s summons, including using the threat of taking them hostage.
