The Honorary Council of the Regional People's Representative Council (BK DPRD) is an institutional body mandated to uphold the integrity, morality, and ethics of council members in accordance with the principles of good governance. Issues arise when the BK DPRD of Subang Regency renders decisions without referring to the legally binding Code of Ethics and Procedural Rules, which should serve as the formal framework for ethical enforcement. This study aims to analyze the validity of BK DPRD’s decisions made without these normative foundations and to assess their implications for legal certainty and institutional legitimacy. The research applies a normative juridical method combined with statutory and sociological approaches. The findings reveal that any decision issued by the BK DPRD without the Code of Ethics and Procedural Rules lacks legal force and violates the principles of justice and legal certainty. Therefore, institutional reform and the establishment of comprehensive internal regulations within the DPRD are essential to ensure legal accountability, procedural fairness, and ethical integrity in legislative governance.
