Jakarta (B2B) - Kementerian Pertanian dan Kementerian Perdagangan sepakat menerapkan penyederhanaan perizinan impor bawang putih melalui mekanisme satu atap.
"Sudah ada kesepakatan antara Kementerian Pertanian dan Kementerian Perdagangan. Proses perizinan akan diselenggarakan secara one stop. Apakah secara fisik dilakukan melalui kantor khusus, atau secara online," kata Mentan Suswono, di kantornya di Jakarta, Jumat (15/3).
Penerapan perizinan satu atap, kata Suswono, untuk mengantisipasi kenaikan harga bawang merah dan bawang putih, yang melonjak di luar kendali dan mencemaskan masyarakat.
Menurutnya, kesepakatan itu diharapkan dapat mempercepat penyelesaian persoalan bawang putih, baik dari sisi pasokan maupun harga.
"Kami akan laporkan dulu di Kementerian Perekonomian, untuk diputuskan seperti apa modelnya. Setelah itu baru kita sampaikan ke Presiden," katanya.
Suswono berharap, dengan peraturan satu atap tersebut, impor bawang putih ke depannya benar-benar dilakukan oleh importir terdaftar (IT).
"Yang penting, IT itu diberikan kepada pelaku importir yang sesungguhnya, sehingga tidak ada jual beli kuota. Itu penegasannya, sehingga proses lebih cepat," katanya. "Intinya, perizinan yang lambat dan tak efisien akan direvisi."
