History

edit

After Constitutional Court decided the Omnibus Law on Job Creation is "conditionally unconstitutional",[2] the court ordered the government and the People's Representative Council (DPR) to "repair" the law from issues surrounding it over two years. The government and People's Representative Council shall not issue any derivative laws based on this law. If the law isn't rectified in two years, it will be declared void and any amendments made to it will be undone.[3] Among issues regarding the law was because the law is made omnibus, in which not recognized by Indonesian law making system which regulated thru Law No. 12/2011 on Law Formulation (Indonesian: Undang - undang Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang-undangan) and its amendment Law No. 15/2019 in regards of Amendment of Law No. 12/2011 on Law Formulation (Indonesian: Undang-undang Nomor 15 Tahun 2019 tentang Perubahan atas Undang-Undang Nomor 12 Tahun 2011 tentang Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang-Undangan).[4]

In order to safe the law and also other omnibus bills, in response of the Constitutional Court's decision, DPR swiftly made the bill for revision of the laws. The bill drafters were from DPR's Board of Experts, led by Dr. Inosentius Samsul as chief bill drafter. The bill addressed to 15 issues in Indonesian law making system which make omnibus law making in Indonesia is impossible.[4]

The bill of law passed on 24 May 2022 by the DPR,[5] commenced on 16 June 2022, and finally published on 20 June 2022.[1][6]
