The activity of traditional medicine practitioners is regulated by Law No. 36 of 2009 \"On Health”. One of the traditional treatments is a religious approach, but it has not received full recognition because it contradicts the principles of medical science. However in everyday life, this approach is valid and proven. This study aims to determine the urgency of legal protection to protect the traditional medicine profession based on supernatural and religion. This research is a normative legal research with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The results of the study show that regulation and legal protection of traditional medicine practitioners are very important because this is an effort to improve public health according to the constitutional mandate and the people's right to health. This legal protection also aims to provide full recognition to the traditional medicine as a profession and legal certainty for traditional medicine practitioners. In order to be able to participate in health care and preserve the nation's culture, the profession of traditional medicine practitioners must be enshrined in the form of legislation, such as the Law \"On Health”","PeriodicalId":31893,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Administration Finance and Law","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70908482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the paper was to ascertain the effectiveness of succession policy in Nigeria. The paper assumed that succession issues have generated several controversies not only in Nigeria but globally. The system theory was utilised as the theoretical framework for the paper. Data was obtained from secondary sources from journals, books, newspapers and other relevant materials. The study adopted the descriptive method of analyses. It argued that in spite of the existence of succession policy, some Nigeria leaders are reluctant to hand over power and responsibilities at the expiration of their tenure to a successor. The finding revealed the following as challenges of succession policy in governance; weak institutions, sit-tight syndrome, and politricking among others. The paper concluded that much is still expected of government in tackling succession challenges; however, there is prospect for improvement in succession processes with the prevalent awareness of the gains of succession policy processes. The study therefore recommends building strong institutions, and shunning sit-tight syndromes among others to mitigate the challenges of succession issues.","PeriodicalId":31893,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Administration Finance and Law","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70908730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The termination of the investigation is contrary to the terms of termination of the investigation as specified in Article 109 of the Criminal Procedure Code which states that a crime can only be stopped if there is insufficient evidence, the case is not a criminal case and is due to legal interests and Article 1 of the Criminal Code regarding the principle of legality. Tipibank termination conditions are; there is a request from the perpetrator of the suspected bank crime against which the OJK approves and the perpetrator pays all losses and costs incurred as a result of the banking crime. there is a request from the suspected perpetrator of bank fraud that is given to OJK and OJK accepts and approves the said application, whether or not there is settlement of losses arising from tipibank, the amount of the loss and the impact on the banking sector, banks, the interests of customers and/or society. Meanwhile, the investigation termination mechanism is; the application of the alleged perpetrator of the tipibank was approved by the OJK and the perpetrator of the alleged tipibank paid compensation. Some of the problems in solving the alleged bank crime by stopping the investigation include; The condition for terminating a tipibank investigation is contrary to the Criminal Procedure Code and the Criminal Code, the concept of resolving allegations of tipibank through termination of investigation is not in line with the principles of restorative justice and the concept of settlement out of court (mediation). Typical bank generalizations that can be resolved through termination of investigations can eliminate the function and purpose of law. Ambiguity regarding the meaning of violations and bank tipi in the UUPPSK and PP-UUPPSK can cause its own problems in its application.","PeriodicalId":31893,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Administration Finance and Law","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70909024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mandate of the public sector is to offer effective and efficient public service delivery to the public, and service provision is guaranteed by the South African constitution. There has been a public uproar about low worker performance and productivity at the Department of Home Affairs. The government is currently employing a Performance Management System (PMS) to improve the performance and productivity of public personnel. This paper will look at the feasibility of the PMS in terms of increasing the productivity and performance of DHA employees. The challenges encountered in the implementation of the PMS will be analysed and possible strategies to counter these challenges will be proposed. This article contends that the PMS is ineffective in addressing South African public servant performance. The government must create new measures to effectively implement the PMS as the current standard tool to improve civil servant performance and productivity. To fulfil the study's objectives, this paper used a qualitative technique, unstructured interviews were the data collection tool used and content analysis was used to analyse the data.","PeriodicalId":31893,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Administration Finance and Law","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135954214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Revenue mobilization was analyzed for 3227 Romanian territorial-administrative units (almost all) for four years (from 2008 to 2011), taking into account the development regions (NUTS 2 level) in which these communities are located. The results corroborate previous evidence that, in the case of Romania, regions of development have an effect on revenue mobilization at the local level. According to the data, local authorities/governments from the North-West development region (with collection levels ranging from 85.54% to 90.61% from what was predicted), West (ranging from 81.69% to 87.55%) and Bucharest (ranging from 84.27% to 88.29%) have better revenue mobilization in the analyzed period. On the other hand, local authorities from the North-East development region (74.43% to 82.25%), South (73.88% to 83.43%) and South-East (with collection ranging from 78.68% to 81.89%) reached lower levels of revenue mobilization; Center and South West development regions constitute an intermediary case between the aforementioned two categories.","PeriodicalId":31893,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Administration Finance and Law","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135954226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
