Abstract
Implementing the provision of legal aid in Aceh, Beside the Aceh
Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights ("Kanwil
Aceh"), the Aceh Government which is a regional entity can allocate a
budget for the provision of Legal Aid in the Aceh Revenue and Expenditure
Budget as regulated in Article 19 paragraph (1) Law 16/2011. The dualism of
legal aid providers in Aceh gives rise to several practical and juridical
problems related to overlapping supervision and duplication of disbursement of
legal aid funds (double payment). The Main problem is Does the granting of
authority to 2 (two) different agencies as providers of legal aid for
disadvantaged communities not cause any overlap in its fulfilment and What are
the Juridical Consequences for the Aceh Government as a Provider of Legal Aid
for Underprivileged Communities in its Territory as regulated by Qanun 8/2017.
This research was conducted normatively juridical method based on bibliographic
sources by means of deductive reasoning in leveraging data. Discussion on This
research shows and explains that Based on studies that
have been carried out, the authority to administer legal aid in Indonesia lies
with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights. Meanwhile, the Aceh Government can
allocate the legal aid budget, supervision of the provision of legal aid rests
with the Governor, in contrast to the budget source from the central government
funds whose supervisory authority with the Minister of Law.and human rights.
Aceh as a regional entity which has special characteristics and does not yet
have a legal basis at the level of law in carrying out the provision of legal
aid for the poor has juridical consequences which conflict with the Legal Aid
Law and can be subject to judicial review.
