The method for forming omnibus laws and regulations is relatively new to positive law for the formation of laws and regulations in Indonesia, considering overlapping regulations are one of the legal issues for reforming laws and regulations in Indonesia that need serious attention. There is a great number of laws and regulations that overlap each other, both horizontally and vertically, resulting in disharmony and legal uncertainty in the laws and regulations in Indonesia and to increase investment value and the national economy which is still relatively low when compared to other countries. This research discusses how the omnibus law concept is applied in other countries in the formation of laws and regulations; and whether the concept of the omnibus law implemented by the Government of Indonesia is in accordance with the objectives of the law and the legal reform of the formation of statutory regulations. This study uses normative research methods. The results of this study conclude that first, other countries, namely Canada, the United States, the Philippines and Vietnam have different legal reasoning, namely as a consolidated norm; increase the investment sector; and the many laws and regulations that overlap with each other and the process of forming laws and regulations is lengthy. Second, the omnibus law method in Indonesia is through Law No. 11 of 2020 on Job Creation which has been revoked by Government Regulation in lieu of Law No. 2 of 2022 does not reflect the objectives of the law (fairness, public benefit and legal certainty) and there are no principles for forming good statutory regulations.

Relevansi Penerapan Metode Omnibus Law dalam Sistem Peraturan Perundang-Undangan di Indonesia

“…Di Kanada, terjadi di tahun 1888 dalam penggunaan metode omnibus, kala itu untuk memperkenalkan private bill, peraturan yang mengatur perjanjian pengkeretaapian yang berbeda, baru di tahun 1967 di Kanada istilah "omnibus bill" secara terbuka diperkenalkan untuk mengajukan Criminal Law Amendment Bill (Juwana, 2020). Di Amerika Serikat menyebut omnibus bill yang dirancang untuk mengharmonisasikan berbagai regulasi yang terpisah yang akan menimbulkan terjadinya tumpang tindih dengan regulasi di negara bagian (Firdaus, 2023) (Indrati, 2007). Menurut Mudakir Iskandarsyah, sistem hukum nasional Indonesia adalah sistem hukum yang berlaku dengan muatan unsur hukum yang saling bergantung berupa isi, struktur, budaya, sarana, peraturan perundang-undangan dan segala sub unsurnya yang bersumber dari norma hukum yang paling dasar (UUD 1945) (Iskandarsyah, 2008).…”
