CONSTITUTIONAL COURT DECISION MAY FURTHER DELAY THE ISSUANCE OF NEW MINING BUSINESS LICENCES - TJEN SHE SIUNG


COALspot.com - In November 2012 the Constitutional Court of Indonesia issued a decision on amendments to certain provisions under the Mining Law No. 4/2009 (the “Mining Law”) regarding the determination of mining areas. The decision was issued in response to the judicial review request submitted by the East Kutai Bupati.

Prior to the Constitutional Court decision, the Mining Law required the Central Government to map mining areas (in terms of Mining Areas, Mining Business Areas, and Mining Business Licence Areas) after consultation with Regional Governments and the Parliament. Until the mapping of such areas is complete there were to be no new mining business licences (Ijin Usaha Pertambangan or IUP) issued.

The Court’s decision means that determination of mining areas now has to be done in two steps, first by the Regional Government and then by the Central Government (after discussion with the  Parliament). We understand that the Central Government had not completed the mine area mapping process prior to the decision. This new procedure may hold up the finalization of mining area mapping which will lead to further delays in the issuance of new IUPs.

One responsibility that has not been transferred to Regional Governments is the determination of State Reserve Areas, or areas where mining activities are prohibited for an unspecified period. Determining State Reserve Areas will remain the responsibility of the Central Government. This may result in conflicts and overlaps between State Reserve Areas and Mining Business Licence Areas where there is no coordination between the Central and Regional Governments. The Constitutional Court decision does not stipulate any means to resolve potential overlaps.
