Gibran's Name Surfaces in DPR Meeting on Establishing National Agrarian Reform Agency (BRAN)

"Exactly, sir. To emphasize the President's directive, we at State Secretariat sent letters to all institutions that if discussing laws, the nomenclature should not be fixed in the law but left to the President," Bambang said.

Baleg Chair Bob Hasan then reaffirmed that this issue does not eliminate the existence or authority of the institution handling agrarian reform.

According to Bob, the duties, functions, and authority of the institution must still be stipulated in the bill, while its formation and organizational structure can be regulated by Presidential Regulation.

"Yes, sir, and it's okay if the institution is mentioned as, say, a ministerial-level body directly responsible to the President. That's fine. The important thing is not to specify the name. But the functions, duties, and authorities should not be removed," Bob said.

"Because the legal structure is there. As for organizational formation and structure, that will be handled by the Perpres," he added.

Iman Sukri voiced a similar opinion, explaining that the bill ensures the existence of a special institution to implement agrarian reform.

"The question is: can we mention BRAN directly in a law article, or leave the name to the government, while ensuring the institution and its authority exist? Something like that," Iman said.

Meanwhile, the government requested to postpone discussions on this provision to conduct further consultations about the articles regulating the agrarian reform institution.
