Cosmetics Working Group: Halal Implementing Regulations to be Issued

Continuing the advocacy for cosmetics sector, Cosmetics Working Group had a meeting with Working Committee IV (Pokja IV) from Task Force of Economic Policy Implementation Acceleration and Effectiveness. Held on 18 September 2017, the meeting discussed the proposal to exclude cosmetics from the obligation of surveyor report, and the obligation of halal certification for Cosmetics products.

During the meeting, Prof. Sukoso, Head of the Halal Product Guarantee Agency (BPJPH) informed that BPJPH is finalizing two draft Government Regulations as Implementing Regulations to the Halal Law. The two drafts are now harmonized at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, as well as Ministry of Finance. Therefore, any inputs can be submitted to those related ministries directly.

Prof. Sukoso further hoped that all stakeholders can support for the government regulations to be issued in order to make the system fully operational. BPJPH is also collaborating with other related government officials in drafting several technical regulations to support the implementation of the Halal Law.
