JAKARTA - The DKI DPRD has received a draft amendment to Regional Regulation Number 2 of 2020 concerning COVID-19 Response from the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan.
In his proposal, Anies wants additional criminal sanctions for health protocol violators. Then, Anies wants the Satpol PP to be given the authority to carry out investigations.
After a plenary meeting with Anies' explanation agenda in the proposed COVID-19 Regional Regulation yesterday, Deputy Chairman of the DKI DPRD Mohamad Taufik said the document was ready to be discussed by the Regional Regulation Formation Agency (Bapemperda) and was targeted for completion by the end of July.
"Bapemperda DKI DPRD together with relevant executives will immediately observe and present the results at the Plenary Session, Thursday, July 29, 2020 at 10:00 WIB," said Taufik as quoted from the DPRD's official website, Thursday, July 22.
Taufik signaled that the DPRD would approve the proposed amendment which adds two provisions for dealing with the pandemic. Because, he hopes, the changes to the COVID-19 Regional Regulation can slow down cases in the capital city.
"We just want to discuss this. God willing (DPRD) agrees because this is for the benefit of the community, for the benefit of Jakarta in the future, and public health," said Taufik.
In the draft amendment to the COVID-19 Regional Regulation, Anies added two articles between Articles 32 and 33, namely Articles 32A and 32B. This article adds a criminal threat.
He explained, if there are violators who repeat the act of not wearing a mask after being given social and administrative work sanctions, they will be sentenced to a maximum of three months in prison or a maximum fine of Rp. 500,000.
Furthermore, for business actors such as offices, industry, hotels, transportation, and restaurants who repeat acts of violating health protocols and have received a license revocation, they will be sentenced to a maximum imprisonment of three months or a maximum fine of IDR 50,000,000.
In addition to adding criminal sanctions, Anies also inserted one article between Articles 28 and 29, namely Article 28A. This article contains rules regarding the investigation of violators of the PPKM provisions. In addition to the article, Anies wants DKI State Civil Apparatus (ASN) such as the Satpol PP to have the authority as investigators.
This means that this investigator is authorized to receive reports, conduct examinations, ask for information and evidence, examine the identification of people suspected of violating the rules, take fingerprints, take pictures and provide the results of investigations to the police and district courts for criminal penalties.
