Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal protection provided to consumers against the circulation of food products that are not halal certified based on Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning Halal Product Assurance. The certification process involves three main institutions: the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency as the organizing authority, the Halal Inspection Institute as the inspection and testing institution, and the Indonesian Ulema Council as the institution that issues fatwas on halal product certification. Legal protection for Muslim consumers is reflected in the principles of protection, responsibility, and transparency of information, which are strengthened by reporting mechanisms and the imposition of sanctions on violating business actors. This study uses a normative juridical approach with descriptive analysis of legal norms to examine the provisions, enforcement mechanisms, and implications of the Halal Product Assurance Law for consumer protection. The results show that although the Halal Product Assurance Law provides a strong legal basis, its implementation is still hampered by weak supervision, lack of socialization, and limited coordination between institutions. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency, increase public awareness, and align halal policies with consumer protection regulations to ensure legal certainty and public trust.

Abstract

The audit profession plays a vital role in ensuring transparency, accountability, and reliability of financial information. Globally, the emergence of freelance auditors reflects market demand for flexible and cost-efficient audit services. However, in Indonesia, audit services are strictly regulated and legally limited to licensed public accountants and public accounting firms, creating tension between regulatory requirements and market needs. This study aims to analyze the legal framework governing audit practices in Indonesia, examine the implementation challenges related to freelance auditor practices, and formulate regulatory strengthening mechanisms to ensure legal certainty and professional accountability. The study employs a normative juridical research method, using qualitative descriptive analysis of primary legal materials, including Law Number 5 of 2011, Government Regulation Number 20 of 2015, and Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 9 of 2023, supported by secondary literature and comparative studies. The findings indicate that freelance auditor practices have no legal basis in Indonesia and arise primarily due to the limited capacity of licensed public accountants relative to market demand. This situation poses risks to legality, audit quality, and accountability. Freelance auditing is an unrecognized legal practice arising from market demand that must be addressed through stronger regulation and professional capacity.
