"A budget of Rp3.104 trillion has been agreed. Now we are asking for Rp1.4 trillion in budget addition," chairman of DPR`s Commission IV for maritime and fisheries affairs, Arifin Junaidi, said after a hearing with the DKP minister here on Tuesday.
Commission IV of the House initially asked the government to set a provisional budget ceiling of Rp6 trillion for the DKP in 2010.
But the provisional budge ceiling that has been agreed for 2010 accounts for Rp3.104 trillion only.
"If the additional budget could not accepted for the 2010 budget, we will do our best to ask for additional Rp1.4 trillion in the 2010 revised budget," he said.
