Member of Commission VII DPR RI Mulyanto said Commission VII had scheduled the summons of Investment Minister Bahlil Lahadalia regarding allegations of abuse of authority related to the revocation and reactivation of the IUP (mining business license).
"Commission VII of the Indonesian House of Representatives has scheduled a Working Meeting with the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources and Investment Minister Bahlil Lahadalia in his capacity as Head of the Investment Use and Planning Task Force," said Mulyanto in his official statement, Wednesday, March 6.
Mulyanto said Commission VII would ask for an explanation and conduct an in-depth investigation regarding the case of the revocation of the IUP by the Task Force.
"The leadership of Commission VII DPR RI has scheduled the Working Meeting during the current session," continued Mulyanto.
Mulyanto said several members of Commission VII had also received reports that more than 2,000 IUPs had been revoked and about 90 IUPs were reactivated. The information received, the process of reactivating the IUP is convoluted. This of course raises a big question mark and suspicion.
"Moreover, institutionally the Minister who has the authority to grant and revoke permits related to mining is the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, not the Minister of Investment. So it seems that the Minister of Investment is worried about this IUP," said Mulyanto.
To note in accordance with Law Number 3 of 2020 concerning Amendments to Law Number 4 of 2009 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining, Article 1 paragraph 38, the Minister in question is the minister who organizes government affairs in the fields of Mineral and Coal Mining.
In Article 119, the IUP or IUPK can be revoked by the Minister if: a. IUP or IUPK holders do not fulfill the obligations stipulated in the IUP or IUPK as well as the provisions of the legislation; b. IUP or IUPK holders commit a criminal act as referred to in this law; or c. IUP or IUPK holders are declared bankrupt.

Whereas in Article 122, paragraph (1) IUP or IUPK that has ended as referred to in Article 12I paragraph (1) is returned to the Minister.
"This is clear, that the Minister in charge of granting and revoking permits related to mining is the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, not the Minister of Investment," said Mulyanto.
According to Mulyanto, through this summons, his party wants to clarify the information circulating in accordance with the supervisory function of the DPR.
"We want the government to run good governance, so that a good, clean and corruption-free government can be realized in the context of efficiency in development for the welfare of the people," said Mulyanto.
