<![CDATA[ABSTRAKBadan Kehormatan merupakan alat kelengkapan Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah yang dibentuk untuk menegakan kode etik Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah. Pada dasarnya Badan Kehormatan merupakan lembaga pengawasan internal Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah. Fungsi Badan Kehormatan ada dua, yaitu fungsi aktif dan fungsi pasif. Penulis memilih Badan Kehormatan Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah Kota Padang untuk diteliti, karena ada beberapa pelanggaran yang telah diterima dan tidak ditindaklanjuti. Metode penelitian ini adalah yuridis sosiologis. Pada dasarnya Badan Kehormatan telah melaksanakan fungsinya dengan baik, namun belum maksimal dalam penegakannya. Badan Kehormatan selama ini masih kurang mengigit karena tindakan-tindakan yang dilakukan Badan Kehormatan dalam menegakkan kode etik belum memberikan efek jera bagi anggota-anggota dewan yang “nakal”. Kendala-kendala yang dihadapi Badan Kehormatan antara lain: Badan Kehormatan dapat menindaklanjuti suatu pelanggaran karena ada pengaduan dari pimpinan Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah, anggota Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah dan/atau masyarakat, tetapi sering laporan tidak lengkap. Pengaduan kurang bekerja sama dan unsur kepentingan politik yang masih kental. Penulis memberikan beberapa saran, antara lain: Badan Kehormatan hendaknya melibatkan pihak-pihak lain di luar anggota Badan Kehormatan Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah sendiri sehingga mekanisme pengawasan yang berbasis etika dapat terwujud lebih independen dan objektif. Selain itu aturan-aturan yang ada, yaitu kode etik dan tata tertib hendaknya lebih dipertegas dan diperbaiki sedemikian rupa agar anggota dewan tidak memiliki celah untuk terhindar dari sanksi-sanksi Badan Kehormatan.Kata kunci: Fungsi, Badan Kehormatan, DPRD Kota PadangABSTRACTHonorary Board is of the fittings of the regional council established to enforce the code of conduct the Regional Representatives Council.
