JAKARTA - The Forest Area Control Task Force (PKH Task Force) collects fines from companies that plant oil palm or open mines illegally in state forest areas.
"It has been carried out per day for 71 corporations consisting of palm oil and mining corporations," said Head of the Indonesian Attorney General's Expert Team Barita Simanjuntak at the Attorney General's Office building, Jakarta, Monday, December 8.
Barita explained that there were 49 palm oil companies whose total fines were estimated at Rp9.4 trillion. Dozens of these companies were also charged with fines.
Of the 33 companies that attended, there were 15 companies that had paid a total of IDR 1.7 trillion, five companies were ready to pay, and there were 13 companies that objected.
"Because in this task force there are 12 ministries/agencies, including the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) which has carried out calculations according to applicable regulations, of course the objection as long as it is acceptable will be verified," he said.
In addition, said Batita, there were also three companies that were not yet present in the collection and 13 companies that were waiting for the billing schedule.
"Especially for oil palm plantations, it has been entered into a crowdsawit account, amounting to Rp1,761,579,500,000.00," he said.
The palm oil company that has stated its total fine is IDR 83,386,250,000.00.
Thus, if it is recapitulated, the total amount of fines from palm oil companies that will be received by the state is IDR 1,844,965,750,000.00.
Furthermore, for mining, Barita said that there were 22 mining companies that were billing fines. Of the dozens of companies, 13 companies attended, while nine companies entered the collection schedule.
Of the 13 companies that attended, one corporation had paid IDR 500 billion out of a total of IDR 2.094 trillion.
Then, there are three companies that receive fines and are ready to pay a total of Rp1,643,731,412,940.00, while one company is still objecting.
If it is recapitulated, the total is Rp3,738,431,987,940.00 which will be received by the state from the collection of fines for mining companies.
Barita also appealed to corporations who are obliged to pay fines to cooperate and be able to work together to complete all accountability in the context of compliance with regulations.
Tidak menutup kemungkinan, Satgas PKH melalui instrumen hukum yang dimiliki, melakukan langkah-langkah hukum. Jikamana ternyata upaya pemenuhan kewajiban administrasi denda, pemenuhan kepatuhan regulasi tidak dihatikan, maka langkah-langkah hukum sesuai dengan kewenangan dan regulasi akan dilaksanakan, katanya.
