In PP No. 382007, all GHG emission reduction activity sectors in RAN-GRK are under governmental affairs that are divided together among levels andor
governmental structure

. Table 20 shows the connection between the GHG emission reduction
sector and governmental affairs division, as well as indicating classiication of governmental affairs which are obligatory and optional for Provincial
Governments and DistrictCity Governments, depending on their respective regional characteristics.
Deinition of ‘obligatory affairs’ is governmental affairs which must be administered by Provincial Governments and DistrictCity Governments
related to basic services

. Whereas, optional affairs are governmental affairs which really exist and can potentially increase people’s welfare according to
the condition, uniqueness, and top potential of the relevant regions

In governmental affairs division, both obligatory and optional affairs, in general there are some criteria for consideration, namely externality, accountability,

. In practice, governmental affairs division will be very contextual and create difference between one period and another
one, and between regions. Therefore, at technical arrangement for each sector, governmental affairs need to be done by looking at the arrangement
conducted through ministrynon-departmental agency dealing with the governmental affairs.
In general, the Central Government through MinistersHead of non- departmental Governmental Agencies has an authority for establishing
norms, standards, procedures, and criteria NSPK for the implementation of obligatory and optional affairs. The NSPK then functions as a guideline for
Provincial Governments and DistrictCity Governments in implementing each of the obligatory and optional affairs. By division of authorities owned by Local
Governments, mitigation options can be proposed as long as it they are still within the scope of the authorities.
Table 21 illustrates division of authorities for the Central Government, Provincial Governments and District City Governments based on PP
No.382007.

RAD-GRK needs to be implemented in the institutional framework that is suitable and was previously established, and it is necessary to have
understanding on distribution of authorities among governmental levels related to climate change. Basically, the central government has built a
general policy complete with norms, standards, procedures, and criteria NSPK Nurhadi, 2009. On the other hand, provincial governments that are
the extended hands of the central government in regions have authorities for controlling the implementation of national policies and NSPK. However,

provincial governments also have a role in facilitating issues among districts cities. Whereas, in the decentralization context, different application to each
sector will depend on the context of the sectoral needs.
For the context of institutional preparation at the local level, it must be understood about the impact on the arrangement of local apparatus
organization, as mentioned in Article 12 Paragraph 2 of PP No. 382007 on Division of Governmental Affairs. Whereas, provisions on governance of the
arrangement of local apparatus organizations need to be established in the framework regulated on PP No. 412007 on Local Apparatus Organizations.
Then, local emission reduction targets, established in Governor’s Regulation are targets of Heads of Regions assisted by local apparatus that can administer
governmental affairs. According to PP No. 412007, local apparatus at the Provincial and DistrictCity levels can take the forms of Local Secretariat,
DPRD Secretariat, Local DInas, as well as Local Technical Agencies; plus, Subdistricts and Villages for Districts Cities.
Beside that, PP No. 412007 also mentions the existence of Local Planning and Development Agency and Local Inspectorate as types of local apparatus
organizations needed for supporting the administration of governmental affairs.
In the context of governmental affairs execution related to GHG emission reduction see Table 22, will be closely related to the development of local
apparatus organizations, especially on the formulation of Key Tasks and Functions of a Local Dinas andor Local Technical Agency, and related sub-
organizations in this case, the Technical Implementing Units.
Arrangement of local apparatus organizations in a region may vary, depending on respective regional characteristics and developmental plans. In the
context of GHG emission reduction, PP No. 412007 regulates the size and classiication of governmental affairs as foundation for establishment of local
apparatus organization structure. Chapter V of PP No. 412007.
Variables of the organizational size are more based on the aspect of population number and amount of Local Budget APBD, so that they are less
contextual to GHG emission reduction actions. To get connection between GHG emission reduction and local apparatus organization structure, it would
be better if it is done through a search for connection between GHG emission reduction sectors regulated in RAN-GRK and classiication of affairs as
the foundation for establishing Local Dinas andor Local Technical Agency regulated in PP No. 412007.
