Based on Law Number 25 of 2004 concerning the National Development Planning System (SPPN) where in carrying out development planning there are four stages that must be implemented, namely the preparation of plans, implementation, control and evaluation of the implementation of the plan. Planning, implementing, controlling and evaluation activities are parts of the management function, which are interrelated and each gives feedback and input to others. Planning that has been well prepared, there is no meaning, if it cannot be implemented, on the contrary every implementation of the plan will not run smoothly, if it is not based on good planning. In line with that, in the framework of transparency and accountability in managing development programs, it is necessary to control and evaluate the implementation of development plans. As the main tasks of the Provincial Bappeda assist the Governor of the Regional Head in the administration of provincial government in the scope of regional development planning and control, including monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of programs/activities carried out by SKPD/Agencies/Institutions sourced from APBN/PHLN funds, deconcentration, assignment tasks and joint affairs.

Special Allocation Funds (DAK) are funds sourced from the state budget allocated to certain regions with the aim of helping to fund special activities which are regional affairs and in accordance with national priorities.

Based on PP 7 of 2008, the allocation of deconcentration funds, assistance tasks and joint affairs is intended to increase achievement of performance, efficiency and effectiveness in the administration of government, public services and development in the region, as well as creating harmony and synergy nationally between programs and deconcentration activities, assistance tasks and joint affairs that are funded from the state budget, with programs and decentralized activities from the APBD.

As the consequences of regional autonomy are constructed permanently in the system of the unitary state, the report on the administration of regional government, is one of the very important means, as a glue of hierarchical relations between the central and regional governments. Thus local government activities are a series and inseparable parts with the activities of the implementation of the State Government as a whole. Considering the position and role of reporting is very important, the report on the administration of regional government is one of the obligations of the regional head to be carried out, both because of his position as a regional leader and as a government leader in the administrative system of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.
