The Directorate General of the Religious Courts (Badilag) finally succeeds to issue guidance for the Information Desk. The guidance will be applied to all Religious Courts across the country. It is officially stated in a decree number 0017/Dj.A/SK/VII/2011. The Director General of the Religious Courts, Wahyu Widiana signed the decree in front of echelons II, III, and IV in meeting room of Badilag, Thursday afternoon (7/7/2011).
“What we want with this guidance is to prohibit the illegal interaction and communication between litigants and the court’s officials. We hope this guidance will be applied to all Religious Courts”, Wahyu Widiana said.
.He emphasized the importance of Information Desk in all Religious Courts. According to him, it will protect the courts from any deviation that may happen. “We could not compromise to any deviation in the courts” he said.
Wahyu Widiana was explaining the decree
Before the decree was officially issued, some chiefs, vice chiefs and registrars of the Religious Court from Jakarta, Bogor, Bandung, Depok, Bekasi, Cikarang, Karawang, Tanggerang, Tigaraksa and Cibinong as well as some chief of the High Religious Courts from Banten, Jakarta and Bandung were discussing the guidance. They showed their enthusiastic and great attention during the discussion. At the final discussion they finally agreed with some important suggestion to the guidance.
Wahyu Widiana realized that some Religious Courts had insufficient human resource as well as infrastructure. Therefore he did not intend to give more burdens to all Religious Courts by publishing the guidance. “If some Religious Courts find some significant obstacles to implement the Information Desk due to lack of resources, the chiefs will be permitted to take an individual policy how to implement it”, he said.
Discussing the draft of the decree
He conveyed his deep gratitude to the Monitoring Team and other parties who have contributed to the issuance of the guidance. He also hope the Team could monitor its implementation after several months.
