Abstract


This research aims to examine the inconsistencies in the formation of laws and regulations and regional government laws. Harmonization of laws and regulations is an important stage in the process of forming quality legal products that do not conflict with higher legal norms. In the context of the formation of regional regulations, issues arise related to the authority for harmonization carried out by the Ministry of Law (Kemenkum), especially when associated with the provisions of Law Number 12 of 2011 concerning the Formation of Laws and Regulations and Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government. The problem in this study is how is the authority for harmonization of the formation of regional regulations by the Ministry of Law and whether there is any inconsistency in the P3 Law with the Regional Government Law. This study aims to analyze the inconsistency in the regulation of the authority for harmonization and its impact on regional autonomy and the clarity of the regional legislative mechanism. This study uses a normative legal method with a statute approach and a theoretical approach, and is analyzed qualitatively descriptively.
