The Aceh House of Representatives (Indonesian: Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Aceh, abbreviated to DPR Aceh or DPRA) is the devolved unicameral legislature of the Indonesian province of Aceh. Unlike other regional legislatures in Indonesia in general, it has unique characteristics according to the 2005 Aceh Government Act c. 11;[1] such as the authority to name itself, the ability to determine the number of members (1¼ times more than ordinary regional legislatures), and the inclusion of Aceh regional parties. The council meets in Aceh's capital city of Banda Aceh.
The DPRA has 81 members who are elected through general elections every five years. The DPRA leadership consists of a speaker and three deputy speakers who come from political parties with the most number of seats and votes.
