In order to carry out regional legal analysis and evaluation activities for fiscal year 2022, the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of DKI Jakarta has established a Working Group on Legal Analysis and Evaluation regarding DKI Jakarta Regional Regulation Number 6 of 2015 concerning Tourism. DESMA Center is part of the working group.
The House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia passed Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation on October 5, 2020, which was subsequently promulgated on November 2, 2020. The Job Creation Law is the first legal product in Indonesia with the concept of Omnibus Law. The logical consequence with the promulgation of the Job Creation Law is the establishment of implementing regulations that will spell out further provisions regarding the regulated substance.
This will certainly change the laws and regulations at the local regulatory level. Apart from the impact of the Job Creation Law, there are several provisions in Regional Regulation Number 6 of 2015 concerning Tourism that are no longer relevant. Ideally, the plan for the preparation of draft regional regulations affected by the existence of the Job Creation Law is prepared by paying more attention to the characteristics of regional specificities, in this case DKI Jakarta Province.
