The Legislation Council serves as the center of national legislations/laws activities formed by the DPR as a standing complementary organ of the DPR.

The composition of membership of the Legislation Council is determined by the DPR at a Plenary Meeting on the basis of proportion to and for the even of distribution of the number of Members of each faction at the inception of the DPR membership and at the inception of the Session Year.

The Legislation Council has the tasks among other things:

• to prepare the national legislation program which includes the list of bills for one term of office of the DPR and priorities for each Budgetary Year;
• and to prepare Bills initiated by the DPR on the basis of specified priority programs;
• to harmonize, finalization and consolidation of conceptual Bills presented by Members, Commissions, or Joint Commissions, prior to delivery to the Leadership of the DPR;
• to hold deliberations on, amendment/ improvement Bills which are specifically assigned by the Steering Committee.

In the performance of its tasks, the Legislation Council may establish coordination and consultation with the Government, DPD, Constitutional Court (MK), Supreme Court (MA) or other parties deemed necessary concerning the matters which do not belong to its scope of duties through the Leadership of the DPR.
