Welcoming the Era of Centralized Regulations
President Joko Widodo signed Law No. 13/2022 on Regulations for the Legislation Establishment (UU PPP). The amendment to Law No. 12/2011 is a way for the government to enact the omnibus law. One of the revisions is a change in the mechanism for ratification of regulations from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights to the Ministry of State Secretariat.
After the PPP Law comes into effect, the Labor Union prepares to challenge the regulation to the Constitutional Court. The Labor Union General Chair Said Iqbal assessed that the PPP Law was only a legal trick to pass the omnibus law, including Law No. 11/2020 on Job Creation which was declared problematic by the Constitutional Court. "The PPP Law is a legal trick, not a legal requirement, so it's not necessary," Said stated Monday.
