JAKARTA - Member of the Legislative Body (Baleg) from the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) faction Bukhori Yusuf regretted that there was a typo in Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning the Job Creation Law.
The findings, he said, became evidence that the drafting of the legislation was problematic.
He then questioned whether the government would make changes again. If so, he considered, this was a flaw in procedure.
"Will this law be changed again after it has been signed? It is not appropriate that this kind of defective item be given to the people," said Bukhori in a written statement to journalists, Tuesday, November 3.
Bukhori questioned the meaning of Article 6 which refers to Article 5 paragraph (1) of Law Number 11 of 2020.
"If Article 6 refers to Article 5 paragraph (1) as it is in the editorial, but Article 5 does not have a paragraph at all, then the point is where it refers," he said.
With this kind of typing error, Bukhori then hopes that this law will not have an impact on multiple interpretations in the implementation of this Job Creation Law. Because, if this happens, the community will be affected.
"On the other hand, the public also needs to monitor whether the Ciptaker Law is in line with the mandate of the 1945 Constitution," he said.
Previously, the writing error in the text of Law 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation was contained in the Job Creation Law Article 6 which reads:
Improvement of the investment ecosystem and business activities as referred to in Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a includes:
a. application of risk-based business licensing;
b. simplifying the basic requirements for Business Licensing;
c. Simplification of sector business licensing; and
d. simplification of investment requirements
However, Article 5 paragraph 1 letter a does not exist. Because there is no derivative verse in the article which reads as follows:
The scope as referred to in Article 4 covers the legal fields regulated in the relevant laws.
It is known that President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) officially signed the Omnibus Law on the Job Creation Law which was passed by the DPR on October 5. The signing of this law was held on Monday, November 2 and promulgated in Law Number 11 of 2020.
The government has also officially uploaded a copy of this law via the jdih.setneg.go.id site. The number of pages in the Job Creation Law is 1,187 pages.
