Prasetyo said that all calculations of the salary amount had been completed and the administrative process had been finalized.
"We are just waiting for the President's signature," he said when asked about the news of the increase in the salary of ad hoc judges reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, January 28.
He said the process which has now been completed, one of which is related to the process of calculating the nominal number of salary determination.
Last week, said Prasetyo, the government had also coordinated with the Supreme Court (MA) to finalize the policy.
Prasetyo said the policy would take effect immediately after being signed by the President.
However, when asked further about the comparison between the amount of salary of ad hoc judges and the salary of career judges, Prasetyo did not provide additional information.
Previously, President Prabowo was preparing a presidential regulation (perpres) regarding the increase in the salary of ad hoc judges.
Until last week, the discussion of the presidential decree had been completed and now it was waiting for the President's approval.
Prasetyo said the presidential decree would be signed in the near future, although he could not confirm the date of its issuance.

FSHA noted that the welfare of ad hoc judges was last regulated through Presidential Decree Number 5 of 2013 and has never been updated until now.
