AKUNTABILITAS PENYALURAN DANA BANTUAN SOSIAL PROGRAM KELUARGA HARAPAN (Configurative Ideographic Study pada Desa Dasan Lekong, Kecamatan Sukamulia, Lombok Timur)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the accountability of the distribution of social assistance funds for the Family Hope Program (PKH) in Dasan Lekong Village, Sukamulia District, East Lombok. Research data were obtained through interviews with informants and direct observation of PKH activities. The method used in this study is a case study with the Configurative Ideographic Study approach. The results of the study indicate that the implementation and distribution of PKH assistance in Dasan Lekong Village are following applicable regulations. However, there are discrepancies in the aid that should be carried out monthly. Internal and external accountability of PKH has been implemented well through a digital daily activity report system, an automatic data update report system, a complaint system for Beneficiary Families (KPM), and supervision of the distribution of PKH funds from both the center and region. The distribution of PKH funds in Dasan Lekong shows accountability and transparency, reflected in the use of clear regulations free from illegal levies and misappropriation of assistance funds. However, there is still a need for stricter supervision of practices in the field, considering the management of ATM cards that should be held by KPM but are managed by group leaders, as well as the practice of giving voluntary money to group leaders who collect aid funds.
