<![CDATA[The importance of good governance, including accountability, is the basis for a democratic country. This principle is also urgent to be applied to intelligence governance to prevent abuse of power and ensure that intelligence operations are carried out responsibly. This study aims to identify the position of the national security intelligence oversight system in Indonesia and provide suggestions for optimizing intelligence oversight. The method used in this study is a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Primary and secondary data obtained through literature study, in-depth interviews and FGDs, were validated through triangulation methods and then analyzed using Miles and Huberman's qualitative analysis method. The results show that the layered supervision system applied to the intelligence oversight mechanism in Indonesia has met four of the six supervisory entities, including entities from within the intelligence agency itself, the executive, legislative and judiciary. In order to optimize the layered intelligence oversight system, the involvement of civil society entities and a new independent supervisory entity is needed. Meanwhile, to optimize the effectiveness of intelligence supervision, it is necessary to add three indicators of supervision effectiveness, including indicators of effectiveness related to timeliness, cost accuracy and measurement accuracy. The three indicators are to complement the seven existing indicators of supervision effectiveness such as accuracy of order execution, accuracy of determining objectives, supervisory mandate, budget control, committee membership, investigative authority and access to confidential information.]]>
