LEGAL ANALYSIS OF THE PROCEDURE FOR THE FORMATION OF THE LAW OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA

Abstract

Laws are a type of legislation whose formation process takes a long time with lengthy procedures as stipulated in Law Number 12 of 2011 concerning Formation of Legislation. The stage of forming a law starts from the stages of planning, drafting, discussing, ratifying or enacting, and enacting. The formation of laws and regulations, especially laws, should be carried out carefully and carefully because they involve the interests of the state and the public. However, if the formation of a law takes a relatively long time, it will not fulfill the community's need for legal certainty. In addition, the law that should regulate current events will become increasingly left behind considering the rapidly changing social developments of society. Therefore, a solution is needed to overcome the problem of forming the law, such as enabling the formation of laws through the Perppu route with consideration of the community's need for legal certainty. Apart from that, the granting of authority to existing institutions can be carried out to review laws that are no longer in accordance with the development of society. It is hoped that this will become input in the renewal of Law Number 12 of 2011 concerning the Formation of Legislation.
