{"title":"RESTORATIVE JUSTICE ASPECT IN STRENGTHENING PRELIMINARY EVIDENCE AUDIT IN INDONESIAN TAXATION","authors":"Denny Irawan","doi":"10.56282/jtlp.v1i2.90","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.56282/jtlp.v1i2.90","url":null,"abstract":"Challenges and problems of justice in handling tax crime cases must be handled by implementing restorative justice in examiningpreliminary evidence in the field of taxation. This has also been confirmed in the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024, which emphasizes that the improvement of the legal system must be realized through one crucial strategy, namely the application of Restorative Justice. Based on a study using a normative juridical method that can answer problem-identification and provide suggestions, this paper produces two conclusions. First, the principle of restorative justice is still very adequate to be adopted in the rules for examining preliminary evidence, as regulated in Number 18/PMK.03/2021, which has amended several provisions in PMK Number 239/PMK.03/2014. Secondly, restorative justice provisions in strengthening preliminary evidence examinations should be based on the following two essential keys. First, preventing tax avoidanceand tax evasion is carried out through efforts to obtain consistent benefits rather than punishment. Second, preliminary evidence is examined if tax avoidance and tax evasion have occurred and if efforts are needed to recover state revenue losses from the sector through solutions and support for the state as a victim of active state participation and taxpayers. Thus, producing rules for examining preliminary evidence that reflect the fulfillment of material requirements, formal requirements, and restorative justicemechanisms.","PeriodicalId":406521,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Tax Law and Policy","volume":"135 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131178857","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}

Based on the statute’s normative method, conceptual, analytical, and case techniques. As the synthesis of several poverty theories affirms that poverty is the scarcity of means of livelihood or the limited level of welfare of a person or a community due to the instability of existing resources and the deprivation of basic capabilities, which results in the inability to achieve their certain functions and goals, it is essential to solving the capability deprivation and digital divide of tobacco farmers by improving the accessibility and connectivity. The Directorate General of Fiscal Balance is necessary to build a website and monitor and evaluate transparently against any obstacles to accessibility and connectivity. Two conclusions were generated. First, the deprivation of capabilities and the digital divide are causes of poverty, so it is necessary to assess alternative policies through access and connection of adequate and sustainable information and communication technologies for tobacco farmers and communities or farmer groups. Second, the government should provide the accessibility and connectivity of tobacco farmers in Indonesia by strengthening tobacco farmer groups (such as cooperatives) and strengthening the cost-effectiveness of technology and value-added service provision.","PeriodicalId":406521,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Tax Law and Policy","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116297200","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}

So that the concept (law) of administrative justice is produced as a problem solving of tax disputes. This article uses a normative juridical method with a prescriptive and evaluative line of thought. Indonesia's tax disputes (including central taxes, regional taxes, and customs and excise) are significant. The percentage of decisions that partially and fully grant the disputes submitted by taxpayers is consistently above from 2014 to 2020. The proposed reform of the Tax Court Law, which shows its characteristics as a settlement of tax dispute cases and at the same time as a problem solver, among others, regulates the existence of an appeals conference or hearing and its characteristics before filing a tax dispute. The handling of applicable tax disputes is still limited to resolving dispute cases, not yet reaching a problem-solving of tax disputes. The handling of civil and criminal cases in court and arbitration has adopted the handling of case resolution and problem-solving of arguments. This will only lead to recurring problems in tax disputes, including the filing of appeals and tax claims that remain a lot, the number of beschikking which is granted partially or wholly even though it is based on the same statutory regulations, the incurrence of extra costs, and additional time for the tax-disputinguting parties. Thus, administrative justice can be considered a fair problem solver in resolving tax disputes between taxpayers and the tax authorities.","PeriodicalId":406521,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Tax Law and Policy","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123807052","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}

This article applies a normative juridical method with an evaluative and prescriptive thought. This method uses a positive legal inventory approach, an approach to legal principles, an approach to legal systematics, and a vertical and horizontal synchronization approach. Tax disputes related to unique relationships still occur. Even related parties’ transactions Domestic transactions are often complex business transactions between companies and their managers, directors, shareholders, or affiliates, making state tax revenues suboptimal. This paper requires an in-depth socio-legal research study, but this paper can enrich empirical research. This paper produces two novelties in the form of legal reconstruction. First, the rules for domestic-related transactions still rely on the arm's length principle (ALP), which is adequate to apply to cross-border transactions between related parties. Domestic special relationship transactions have their complexities. Second, there is a need for legal reconstruction of domestic related party transactions oriented towards increasing compliance (reporting certain transactions) and providing access to tax authorities in jointly taking responsibility for preventing and overcoming suboptimal state tax revenues.","PeriodicalId":406521,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Tax Law and Policy","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130795857","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}
