In Indonesia, a Regional House of Representatives (Indonesian: Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah, DPRD; lit.

'Regional People's Representative Council') is the unicameral[1] legislative body of an Indonesian national subdivision, at either the provincial or at the regency/city level.

The legislatures are present in all Indonesian provinces, and all second-level subdivisions except for the constituent municipalities of Jakarta.

[3] Provinces in Western New Guinea similarly do not include the word "Daerah" in their provincial legislatures, as regulated by Law 21 of 2001 on Papuan Special Autonomy.

[5] The original Constitution of Indonesia, written in 1945, did not include specific provisions for DPRD, deferring local government to later laws.

[11] DPRDs maintained their legal authority to select regional leaders (i.e. governors, mayors, and regents) during the New Order period.

[17][18] However, DPRD cannot remove regional leaders from their positions, which remained the authority of the Supreme Court of Indonesia.

[24] The Indonesian electoral law of 2017 sets the number of seats for DPRDs according to the regional population, as defined in the ranges below: Provincial / DPRD I[25]:Art.

[25]: p442, p451  Furthermore, DPRD in Western New Guinea allocates additional reserved seats for native Papuans numbering 25 percent of elected members.

Members on the reserved seats are appointed by a council of government officials, academics, and tribal leaders.

The replacement is selected from the same political party, specifically, the legislative candidate who ran in the same electoral district and received the next highest vote count but did not qualify.
