Summary: | Considerable challenges remain in
functional assignment in Indonesia - some introduced by the
recent revisions, during the second round of reform in the
period 2004-2007. The Government of Indonesia (GoI) has
accepted the offer from donors to undertake a study to delve
more deeply into the progress made to date, the challenges
that remain, and the opportunities to fashion a more robust,
effective and stable assignment of functions. The study aims
to help the GoI and donors in exploring new avenues for
reform in this field. The term functional assignment in the
study denotes a broad concept that captures the overall
architecture of roles between levels of government and the
specific construction of functions. The robustness of
functional assignment is seen to derive from the judicious
choice of elements suited to the local context, particularly
how these elements come together to form a sound and
consistent architecture. In assessing functional assignment,
the study made use of academic and other stakeholder views
on both substantive issues and the capacity development
approach needed to develop a policy network in this field in
the future. The possible supporting role of donors is also
indicated, within the discussion of each issue in the main
part of the report, and in condensed form at the end of this summary. |
