Description
In accordance with the Law of Access to Public Information No. 14/ 2008 (UU KIP), every public institution is obliged to provide information service to the society. As a follow up to the Law, Local Information Commission (KID) needs to be established at the provincial and district/city level. In addition to that, technical guidance for the Information Commission that sets criteria for applicants for public information is also necessary. Currently KID is still not available in all provinces, thus necessary regulations are required to accelerate the establishment of KID in all provinces.
