Abstract

National / Regional Development Planning (PPN/D) is a derivation of political promises of the head of state / region, hence the National and Regional Development Planning tends to be momentary interests of the head of state / region and / or elitists around him. The National and Regional Development Planning which is put into the program and made as a project can be colored by the elements of corruption, collusion and nepotism and that the program / project is likely to be executed at random. The liability for acts of corruption, collusion, and nepotism that leads to the failure of the National / Regional Development Planning is still noticeably blurry and so light, and limited only when the accountability report of the implementation of the National and Regional Development Planning is declared “rejected”, then the head of state / region concerned would be requested to fix it and / or he could no longer run. On the other hand, the National / Regional Development Planning must have used a large number of resources, so it is interesting to see more deeply, such as the possibility of criminal sanctions which can be imposed as a “deterrent” of a bad faith of the whole process National / Regional Development Planning. Based on those mentioned above, this paper will discuss the possibility to request criminal liability for the failure of the National / Regional Development Planning. The research method used is qualitative descriptive, using secondary data, a literature search. Since the head of state/region is the responsibility center of the government administration, the head of state / region must be responsible for the implementation of National / Regional Development Planning. The rejection of the accountability report presented by the head of state / region is a measure of the failure of the National/Regional Development Planning. Since the National / Regional Development Planning is a derivation of the political promises of the head of state / region at the time of the election campaign, the criminal offenses of fraud could be made as the basis of criminal liability for the failure of the National / Regional Development.
