Construction of the regional representative council as regional representation through historical approach in Indonesia
Keywords:
Construction, DPD, Historical ApproachAbstract
Juridically, the Regional Representative Council (DPD) of the Republic of Indonesia is regulated in Article 22C and Article 22D of the 1945 Constitution. The existence of the DPD as a regional representative institution in absorbing and realizing people's aspirations, the authority given by the constitution is still weak. The DPD's legislative authority cannot be said to be complete, because the DPD is only limited to proposing bills, without being given authority to approve laws. Strengthening the DPD's legislative function can only be done by continuing changes to the 1945 Constitution. This article explains the reconstruction of the DPD's position in Indonesia as well as the ideal concept of the DPD's function in Indonesia. This research uses a normative juridical research type with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. In the perspective of a democratic rule of law based on the constitution, representative institutions that carry out legislative, supervisory and budgeting functions are given constitutional rights to carry out these functions. Theoretically, some countries usually adhere to a bicameral system consisting of a Lower House and an Upper House. The constitution differentiates and limits the functions performed by these two chambers. It is necessary to optimize the DPD to correct the imbalance in the DPD's position as a regional representative institution through changes to the 1945 Constitution.
