| description | During the Dutch East-Indies period, environmental
legislation could be characterized as "classical", In that it concerned primarily with sectoral aspects. It mainly emphasized environmental control.
A few of the regulations of this period are still validon
the basis of the provisions as contained In Article II concerning Transitional Provisions of the 1945 Constitution.
The environmental legislation in Indonesia today
therefore comprises both the laws and regulations of the preindependence period and those developed during the independence period. The 1972 Stockholm Declaration on the
Human Environment gave an impetus to the development of
modern environmental legislation.
An important breakthrough in the overall management
of the environment is the promulgation on March Tlth,
1982 of the Act No.4 of 1982 concerning Basic Provisions
for the Management of the Living Environment.
It encompasses all aspects of the living environment in
order to form the basis for further regulations. In addition, it serves as the basis for the evaluation and adjustment of all legislations heretofore valid.
The Act strongly advocates a development, which is
based upon environmental consideration as a means of
achieving continuity and the well-being of present and future generations.
This paper studies the various implications of the principles contained in the Act. |
