And confirmed by the Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights Number 7 of 2016 concerning the Notary Honorary Council. However, the regulation does not state how many times the Notary Honorary Council can be summoned by the Notary Honorary Council, resulting in legal uncertainty because in some cases there have been repeated summons of Notaries by the Notary Honorary Council where the results of the Notary Honorary Council’s decisions are inconsistent.

Data analysis is carried out using qualitative juridical analysis methods. From the results of the research, it can be obtained that the legal certainty of the decision of the Regional Notary Honorary Council regarding the granting of permission to summon Notaries by law enforcement officials can be created if in making this decision, the Regional Notary Honorary Council is consistent and in making the decision must be in accordance with the regulations of the minister of law and human rights Number 7 of 2016.
