JAKARTA - The House of Representatives has confirmed that there will be no material changes in the Job Creation Law after the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK).
Previously, the Panel of Judges of the Constitutional Court (MK) stated that Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation was contrary to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and had no conditionally binding legal force.
"Contrary to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and does not have legally binding conditional terms as long as it does not mean 'no repairs have been made within 2 years since this decision was pronounced'," said Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court Anwar Usman when reading the verdict, Thursday, November 25.
In reading the verdict, Anwar Usman also stated that the Job Creation Law was still in effect until the legislators, namely the government and the DPR, made improvements to the formation in accordance with the grace period as determined in the decision.
The Constitutional Court ordered the legislators to make improvements within a maximum period of 2 years since the decision was pronounced by the Constitutional Court, and if within that time frame the legislators did not make improvements, the Job Creation Act became permanently unconstitutional.
"If within a period of 2 years the legislators are unable to complete the repair (of the Job Creation Law, ed.), the law or articles or material content of the law that has been revoked or amended by the Job Creation Act must be declared valid again. ," said Anwar Usman.
