The Existence of The Indonesia Peatland Restoration Agency in Perspective of Organization and Authority

The Indonesia Peatland Restoration Agency (BRGI) is established with the legal basis of Presidential Regulation Number 1 Year 2016. BRGI is founded by coordinating and facilitating peatland restoration in several regions in Indonesia. BRGI is a non-structural institution which is under responsible to the President. BRGI is a state's auxiliary organ (agency or supporting / supporting body). In authority, BRGI can expand its tasks and functions given by the Presidential Regulation or outside the Article 2 and 3 of Presidential Regulation No. 1 2016. Article 30 section (1) clearly states that BRG conducts the duties for 5 (five) years and ends on December 31st, 2020. This is further strengthened by the provision of Article 31 which states that the Presidential Regulation is valid for five years from the enactment. The President with his prerogative has the authority whether to continue the existence of the BRGI or not, even though the Presidential Regulation clearly states the expiration of the institution.
