- A number of civil organizations which are grouped under the Masyarakat Sipil Tolak Perizinan Ngawur coalition (“Public Coalition”) have argued that Regulation of the Government No. 24 of 2018 on the Electronically Integrated Business Licensing Service (“Regulation 24/2018”), which has become the framework for Online Single Submission (“OSS”) system, has the potential to harm both society and the environment, particularly communities which are situated adjacent to business locations.
- Raynaldo, a member of the Public Coalition, issued a statement recently asserting that Regulation 24/2018 may lead to environmental damage, as the OSS system allows businesses to bypass the mandatory obligation to obtain environmental licenses prior to commencing business operations, as the environmental license has now been downgraded to a business-license commitment under the OSS framework. It is now therefore possible for businesses to be issued business licenses without initially securing environmental licenses.
- Based on these grounds, the Public Coalition filed for a judicial review of Regulation 24/2018 against Law No. 32 of 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management at the Supreme Court on 4 September 2019.
