<![CDATA[This study aims to explore the impact of the expansion of the authority of the People’s Representative Council of the Republic of Indonesia through amendments to the Rules of Procedure on the independence of state institutions and the balance of power within the Indonesian system of government. The method used in this study is normative legal analysis with a qualitative approach, utilizing data from secondary legal sources such as laws, books, and academic journals. The findings of this study indicate that the expansion of authority, particularly regarding the evaluation mechanisms for officials appointed by the DPR, can lead to political interference in state institutions that are supposed to be independent, thereby threatening their autonomy. Furthermore, this expansion of authority also has the potential to undermine the balance of power by strengthening legislative dominance beyond the constitutional limits of authority as stipulated in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This situation has the potential to create legal uncertainty and also threatens the principle of checks and balances within Indonesia’s governmental structure.]]>
