Ownership Of Land

Peningkatan bonus demografi di Indonesia menyebabkan jumlah permukaan lahan untuk dimanfaatkan ruangnya dalam menggerakan roda ekonomi semakin sempit. Provinsi Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta yang menjadi pusat bisnis dalam menghadapi masalah keterbatasan lahan perlu memanfaatkan ruang bawah tanah yang ada. Keberadaan ruang bawah tanah pada praktiknya dimanfaatkan untuk sarana jaringan utilitas terpadu agar pemanfaatan lahan menjadi lebih optimal. Sebelum adanya Undang-Undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2020 pemanfaatan ruang bawah tanah tidak diatur secara komprehensif. Kemudian barulah Peraturan Pemerintah No. 18 tahun 2021 menegaskan secara yuridis bahwa terdapat pemisahan secara horizontal antara kepemilikan hak atas tanah di atas permukaan dengan di bawah tanah. Namun dalam penerapan peraturan-peraturan dimaksud masih perlu adanya sosialisasi terus menerus agar tercipta keteraturan pemahaman hukum. Lebih lanjut, dengan adanya Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 91/PUU-XVIII/2020 yang menyatakan UUCK inkonstitusional bersyarat diduga dapat memperlambat proses penerapan peraturan baru ini. Bahwa dalam hal ini diperlukan peranan notaris sebagai pejabat pembuat akta tanah yang akan bersinggungan dengan hal-hal dimaksud. Notaris perlu turut andil dalam peran edukasi terkait khususnya pelaksanaanya selama masa pandemi covid-19 saat ini. Penulis menemukan dalam pemanfaatan ruang bawah tanah menggunakan hak guna bangunan dimana untuk pembuatan aktanya dapat diproses oleh notaris.Keyword: Notaris, ruang bawah tanah, jaringan utilitasAbstractThe increase in the demographic bonus in Indonesia causes the amount of land to be used for economic development purposes has its own limitation. The Province of the Special Capital City Region of Jakarta, which is a business center that dealing with the problem of limited land, needs to take advantage of the existing underground space. The existence of underground space is usually utilized for integrated utility network facilities so that land use becomes more optimal. Prior to Law Number 11 of 2020 the use of underground spaces was not comprehensively regulated. Then the Government Regulation No. 18 of 2021 juridically confirms that there is a horizontal separation between ownership of land rights above the surface and below the ground. However, in the application of these regulations, there is still a need for continuous socialization in order to create a regular understanding of the law. Furthermore, with the Constitutional Court Decision Number 91/PUU-XVIII/2020 which states that the UUCK is conditionally unconstitutional, it is suspected that it can slow down the process of implementing this new regulation. That in this case the role of a notary as an official making land deeds is needed which will intersect with the underground utilization. Notaries need to take part in the role of related education, especially its implementation during the current covid-19 pandemic. The author finds that in the use of the basement using the right to use the building where the deed can be processed by a notary.

Under the influence of the spread of coronavirus infection, the world community has faced difficult challenges that provoke changes in the seemingly already stabilized legal regulation, putting at risk the settlement of human rights and the common good. The study aims to find effective mechanisms for balancing human rights and public interests in the context of their legal regulation. Specifically, this study is focused on the mechanisms of balancing private and public interests in the implementation of quarantine measures in the Covid-19 pandemic. The research methods were both general scientific and special methods, in particular: formal legal, historical and legal, analysis and synthesis. To perform the tasks of the work, the following structure was used: after some initial precisions, there are provided some considerations about the fiscal stimulus measures and about the exercise of the right of derogation; then, the study deals with the problem of lawmaking in a pandemic; and finally it is considered the threats to intellectual property in the sphere of healthcare. The results of the work show that the pandemic has seriously hit the balance between private and public interests. The public interests of the government and society have become a priority, but in many cases, the measures that infringe private interests are disproportionate, untimely and inefficient.

This Article analyses, through the lens of comparative law, theOliari and others v. Italyjudgment, which was issued by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in July 2015. TheOliaricase is important for being the first judgment in which the ECtHR established the granting of legal “recognition and protection” to same-sex couples as a positive obligation for the Member States of the Council of Europe on the basis of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. In order to understand the role of judicial bodies in the progressive protection of homosexual rights, this Article combines an analysis of European case law with the national perspective. As it concerns the supranational facet, the authors illustrateOliari's reasoning and situate the case in the jurisprudence of the ECtHR. Elements of both continuity and innovation emerge from the analysis, as well as a relevant dimension of judicial dialogue supporting the incremental recognition of gay rights in Europe. As it concerns the national facet, this specific case was initially dealt with at the domestic level and was the object of judgment 138/2010 by the Italian Constitutional Court. The judgment is critically put into perspective through the examination of the jurisprudence of other European Constitutional Courts (France, Portugal and Spain) that were called on to decide similar cases in the same period. Therefore, the Article offers a comparative analysis of theOliarijudgment clarifying its relevance and speculating on the potential value of this case for the future recognition of the right to a “gay” family life in Europe.

International standards on human rights and Constitution of the Russian Federation put social rights on a par with civil and political rights what is interpreted as a necessity to provide them with equitable and efficient remedy, extension to them of the general principles of effect of human rights and the related remedial procedures. However, the specifics of the nature of social rights introduces its adjustments, at times, fairly significant ones. Thus, although Article 18 of RF Constitution proclaims the principle of direct force for all human rights, social rights primarily produce effect indirectly. Irrespective of the distinctions in the content of two principles — more generalized principle of direct effect of constitutional provisions and direct force of human rights; it is majorly recognized in the national doctrine of the constitutional right that the indirect force of social rights does not contradict to the general principle of direct effect of constitutional provisions. The indirect force of constitutional social rights is conditioned by the necessity of their specification and detalization in the laws; this can be stated in the rule itself or stem from a high degree of abstractness of social provisions formulated in the norms-standards and norms-principles. The indirect force manifests itself in the fact that courts when hearing cases related to challenging the provisions of social legislation apply the norms of the Constitution only in relationship with the specifying rules of branches of law referring to the fundamental constitutional principles.RF Constitutional Court distinguishes the rights "directly recognized by the Constitution" and "acquired by virtue of law" and pursues different policies in respect of their interpretation. The Court proceeds from the fact that the direct force of social rights is primarily aimed at the legislator who may not adopt laws unreasonably narrowing the scope of legal regulation of such rights thus interprets constitutional social rights in aggregate with other constitutional principles — support of citizens’ confidence in law and acts of the government, legal certainty and reasonable stability of legal regulation, proportionality etc.The highlighted specifics requires doctrinal comprehension and development of theoretical approaches to the content of a constitutional principle of direct force of human rights in the area of social rights, determination of legal tools and me cha-nisms of their remedy including via a proper judicial procedure.

The paper addresses the basic rights and freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution of Georgia, in particular, issues related to personal data. The development of information technology has had a significant impact on the dangers of illegal processing of personal data. The European Court of Human Rights considers the inviolability of private life as a precondition for human autonomy, independent development and protection of human dignity. According to the norms of international law, the right to respect for private life is recognized as one of the most important and fundamental rights, the protection of which is indicated by the legislation of Georgia. The aim of the paper is to analyze the legislation and practice of police law in the field of protection of the right to privacy and to offer relevant recommendations, taking into account the standards set by European and national courts. Human rights legislation must ensure the protection of all human beings against the abuse of state power. Interference with rights must be based on the principle of proportionality. The use of policing should not pose an excessive threat of fundamental human rights violations. Interference with a particular right must be done under principle of proportionality to achieve a certain public good. In clarifying the issue of alleged violation of the right, special attention should be paid to the severity and probability of the expected threat to legal good. The Constitution of Georgia, EU and Council of Europe data protection standards, national legislation, as well as the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and the National Constitutional Court are analyzed around the topic. In addition, the reports of the State Inspector, the Public Defender and the relevant scientific literature are used to study the above issues.

This writing analyses access to water not merely as a right but as human  rights. Since the right to water constitues human rights, then constitutionally, the state, mainly the government, is obliged to respect, fulfil and protect that right. In order that the government can perform its obligation to fulfil the right of citizens   to water, the sate should put control of water under the power of the state. Thus, there are two perspectives in fulfilling the rights of citizens to water, human rights perspective and the perspective of state control. From the perspective of human rights, the 1945 Constitution has stipulated the obligation of the state in fulfilling the human rights of citizens including the right to water as stated in Article 28I paragrahp (4). From the perspective of state control over water resources, the 1945 Constitution has also determined constitutional standard as stipulated in Article 33. This concept of state control based on Article 33 has been interpreted by the Constitutional Court in its decisions. Specifically, in the decision concerning the law on water resources, the Court returned control over water to the state. The Court  set some limitations on how to utilize water resources. Private corporations are still allowed to participate in water management with strict conditions. The enhancement of this control by the state over water is intended to guarantee the fulfilment of the right of citizens to water. As an idea, monopoly of the state over water resources might be also be considered just like monopoly of state over electricity.

The article deals with the role of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in protecting the right to social security. There is the analysis of the case law of the ECtHR on the violation of the right to social security, namely the right to receive a pension, which the ECtHR classifies as property rights. The authors have outlined the ways to improve the practice of the ECtHR in this area in modern national and world socio-economic conditions. According to available estimates, around 50 per cent of the global population has access to some form of social security, while only 20 per cent enjoy adequate social security coverage. Ensuring an ap-propriate mechanism for the protection of human and civil rights is a priority for every country. However, according to case law, the number of complaints of violations or non-recognition of their rights is growing every year. An important role in the protection of human rights in today's conditions is played by an international judicial body - the European Court of Human Rights. In Ukraine, where socio-economic rights are recognized at the constitutional level, their guarantee content in the current laws is still not clearly defined, and therefore, as evidenced by the practice of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, legal mechanisms their protection, in particular the means of judicial control remain ineffective. The right to social security is the right to access and retention of benefits, both in cash and in kind, without discrimination in order to protect, in particular, against (a) lack of income from work caused by illness, disability, maternity, occupational injuries , unemployment, old age or death of a family member; (b) inaccessible access to medical care; (c) insufficient family support, especially for children and adult dependents. It is well known that the European Convention does not contain many socio-economic rights as such (with a few exceptions - protection of property and the right to education). Thus , the former president of the ECtHR Jean-Paul Costa specifically pointed to another important European human rights treaty – the European Social Charter. Human rights are a universal value, and their protection is the task of every state. The European Court of Human Rights plays an important role in protecting human rights in modern conditions. The functioning of such an international judicial institution can not only solve a problem of protection of violated rights, but also affect the development of the judicial system of each state. The main principle of realization and judicial protection of social rights is non-discrimination on the grounds of sex, age, race, national and social origin of the individual, and the role of auxiliary institutions of the Council of Europe in generalizing and improving the ECtHR’s activity has been emphasized.

LABURPENA: Lan honen xedea da erakustea Konstituzio Auzitegiak, gai batzuen inguruko eskumen gatazkak ebaztean, ez duela kontuan hartu nazioarteko auzitegiek egin duten interpretazioa giza eskubide batzuen edukiari buruz. Eskubide horiek lotura estua dute gizarte eskubideekin edo gizarte eta ekonomia politikaren printzipio zuzentzaileekin. Eskubide horiek babestu eta gauzatzea autonomia erkidegoei dagokie, beren autonomia estatutuek aitortzen dizkien eskumenen arabera. Adibidez, osasunerako sorospenak zerikusia dauka tratu txar, anker, umiliagarri eta jasangaitzik ez jasotzeko eskubideekin eta baita bizitza eskubidearekin ere; etxebizitza duinerako eskubideak ere harreman estua dauka bizitza pribatu eta familiarrerako eskubidearekin. Hortaz, artikuluak zera proposatzen du: Konstituzio Auzitegiak proportzionaltasun printzipioa aplikatu behar du, beharrizanezko, premiazko edo gizarte-bazterketako egoera batean dauden pertsonen eskubideak eta bideragarritasun ekonomikoa neurtuz.

RESUMEN: Este trabajo tiene por objeto demostrar que, al resolver los conflictos de competencias en determinadas materias, el Tribunal Constitucional no ha tenido en cuenta la interpretación que han realizado tribunales internacionales sobre el contenido de determinados derechos humanos. Estos se encuentran íntimamente vinculados a derechos sociales o principios rectores de la política social y económica, cuya salvaguarda o satisfacción corresponde a las comunidades autónomas en virtud de sus competencias reconocidas por los estatutos de autonomía. Por ejemplo, la asistencia sanitaria está relacionada con el derecho a no recibir tratos crueles, inhumanos o degradantes o, incluso, con el derecho a la vida; el derecho a la vivienda digna también es inherente a la vida privada y familiar. Así, el artículo propone que el Tribunal Constitucional aplique el principio de proporcionalidad ponderando los derechos de las personas que se encuentran en una situación de necesidad, emergencia o exclusión social, así como la viabilidad económica para garantizarlos. Asimismo, se plantea tomar en consideración las competencias de las comunidades autónomas en materias como la asistencia social o la vivienda. ABSTRACT: The purpose of this work is to demonstrate that, in resolving conflicts of jurisdiction regarding certain matters, the Constitutional Court has not taken into account the interpretation that international courts have made on the content of certain human rights. These are closely linked to social rights or guiding principles of social and economic policy, whose safeguard or satisfaction corresponds to the Autonomous Communities by virtue of their competences recognized by the Statutes of Autonomy. For example, health care is related to the right not to receive cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or, even, to the right to life; the right to decent housing is also inherent to private and family life. Thus, the article proposes that the Constitutional Court should apply the principle of proportionality by balancing the rights of individuals in a situation of need, emergency or social exclusion, as well as their economic viability in order to guarantee them. It also considers taking into consideration the competences of the Autonomous Communities in matters such as social assistance or housing.
