REDD+ Agency and the National Committee on Climate Change (DNPI) will be integrated into the recently formed Ministry of Environment and Forestry, according to a new presidential regulation signed on 21  January 2015.

Presidential Regulation no. 16/2015 does not mention under which directorate general the agencies will be  merged into, nor a specific transition period that will allow all changes to be completed.

The ministry will have nine directorate generals, a secretariat general, and an inspectorate general,  according to the presidential regulation, which can be downloaded here. The directorate generals include  one for climate change mitigation, whose tasks include emissions reduction, adaptation, monitoring,  reporting, and verification, and forest fire control.

Rehabilitation of peatlands and prevention of further degradation of the carbon-rich areas will be the  responsibility of the directorate general for pollution and environmental damage control. The other  directorate generals include on environmental and forestry spatial planning, ecosystem and natural  resources conservation, watershed and protected forests, and sustainable production forest  management. The ministry will also have directorate generals to deal with waste and toxic materials  management, social forestry and environmental partnerships, and environmental and forestry law  enforcement.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo merged the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Forestry when  he came into power in October 2014. Both BP REDD+ and DNPI were formed during the administration of  previous President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, with the first as part of an agreement with Norway, who  committed to provide as much as USD1 billion over a period of time to reduce emissions from deforestation  and forest degradation (REDD+).
