JAKARTA - The Constitutional Court (MK) held a trial for the judicial review of Law No. 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright (UU Hak Cipta) submitted by 28 singers members of the Indonesian Voice Vibration (VISION), with the agenda of hearing the statements of the DPR and the President, on Monday, June 30.
Representing DPR Ri, I Wayan Sudiarta, who is currently a member of Commission III, when closing his statement, asked the Constitutional Court to reject all submitted applications.
"Declaring that the applicants do not have legal provisions or legal standing, so the a quo application must be declared unacceptable," said Sudiarta.
"Rejecting the petitioners in its entirety, or at least the application is unacceptable," he continued.
Sudiarta also asked the Constitutional Court to accept all statements from the DPR which he conveyed to the petition points of the petitioners.
"Declare Article 9 paragraphs 2 and 3, Article 23 paragraph 5, Article 81, Article 87 paragraph 1, and Article 113 paragraph 2 of Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright, do not conflict with the 1945 Constitution and still have binding legal force," he said.
