In addition, the review on the legislation, related to authorization or the right to review it (toetsingsrecht or the right to review) could be consisted of judges and executives and also the legislatives. The authority of judicial review by the constitutional court is a judicial authority of the constitution. The authorization was a result of the third amendment to the Indonesian constitution of 1945. Regarding the developments of the implementation of the judicial authority by the constitutional court, there were increasing trend of judicial reviews year to year.
