<![CDATA[The enforcement of the code of ethics in the House of Representatives (DPR) plays an important role in maintaining the dignity and accountability of the legislative body. However, in practice, this enforcement effort still faces various structural and cultural obstacles. This study aims to analyze the legal framework and mechanisms for enforcing the code of ethics in the DPR, as well as to identify the challenges that hinder its effectiveness. Using a descriptive juridical method, it was found that the Honorary Council of the House (MKD) and the Honorary Board (BK) as internal ethics enforcers are often constrained by political interference, conflicts of interest, and the members’ low sensitivity to social issues. The lack of representation of women and vulnerable groups also weakens ethical oversight. To improve this condition, it is necessary to strengthen the independence of MKD and BK, implement stricter conflict-of-interest regulations, and enhance transparency and public participation. Effective enforcement of the code of ethics is the key to restoring public trust and strengthening the integrity of representative institutions in Indonesia.]]>
