Non-structural institution


Non-structural institutions or non-structural agencies are special organizations in Indonesia distinct from traditional government ministries and non-ministerial government bodies. Formed through certain legislative and executive acts, non-structural institutions are formed to support the overall functions of the state and government, addressing specific needs/tasks that cannot be as efficiently handled by existing ministries and agencies. Funding for these organizations come from the national budget.

Classification

Non-structural institutions can be classified based on how they were established, their sources of funding, and whether they have regional representation or not. The types are as follows:
1. Legal Basis of Formation:
2. Funding:
  • Independent budget : Funded through their own distinct budget allocations
  • Ministry/Agency attached budget : Funded through the budgets of their associated government ministry or agency
  • Regional budget : Funded through the nation's regional budgets
  • Other funding sources
3. Regional Representation:
  • Institutions which primarily operate at the national level, thus having no regional offices
  • Institutions which have regional offices
