A. Background and Problem Formulation
Implementation of the Indonesian government in the New Order era was dominated by the executive, the position of the House of Representatives DPR and the Peoples Consultative
Assembly MPR into an institution that only works embracing all political decisions regimes. The Executive not only perform the function of policy perse, but at the same time be the final
arbiter of all policies. Cooptation very strong executive is a mirror system of executive government heavy that no operation system causes dispersion power of checks and balances. In
the totalitarian system tends to be ascertained poor because of weak government accountability functions of supervision. When the system of government is shifting toward strengthening the
legislature, the opportunities for the birth of power management more accountable also open to Parliament to be a strong institution. Coupled with the character of the House of Representatives
that is plural, it is great hope to build a system of government with checks and balances can be realized. But we see interest pluralism has become the character of representative institutions
showed collective action to rob the country conducted by some members of the House of Representatives. Uncontrolled negative behavior of the board members due to a weak
accountability mechanisms of representative institutions in the republic. Institutionalization of representative democracy in Indonesia just reached the level seems to give a strong political
power to the House of Representatives, but the mechanisms of control over political power is not yet standardized strong.
Members of Parliament as representatives of the people and party representatives recently revealed many cases very poor. Phenomena such as the discovery of bribery cases, for-for
money, and the sex scandal has become a habit among some members of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia respected. After a bribery case related to the
transfer functions of forests in some regions of Sumatra, a sex scandal, scandal laws of Bank Indonesia, the case of roads, study abroad and BLBI scandal, and the last arrest of members of
the House of Representatives who took bribes related to athlete development at Jaka Baring Palembang was also followed by the revelation of cases of money laundering and corruption of

. It shows integrity to become a member of the legislature is not qualified selectively. Similarly, the same conditions followed by the regional council with bertebarnya
corruption, criminal offenses inevitable. When the New Order government, policy-making in the hands of the executive raises many irregularities. Similarly, after the reform tends to be given to
legislative policy, showing the same deviation. Supervision of the members of the board through the ranks of the members of the board with the establishment of the Ethics Council and the
supervision of political parties that have representation in the House of Representatives seems not effective.
As in the cases in the House of Representatives Regional when board members are involved corruption, the party became a vehicle of political easily fired or directly hold PAW
Time Shift. PAW also applies to members of the board are critical and defaulters, such as not approve the decision and agreement of the party. In this case, the position of Political Parties
should be called into question its responsibility for the supervision of cadres who sits as a board member. When determining whether something to be formulated in parliament, board members
beforehand to discuss at the meeting at the level of political parties. When this has been done on each of the parties that have representation on the board, then the party should also take
responsibility in decision-making on the board. Thus, political parties are not arbitrarily dismiss cadres who sits on the board when snagging problems. So far, only political parties want to find
a clean, but does not provide a solution and cadres as a form of protection against the responsibility of cadres deviant behavior. This happened in the case of board members in the
House of Representatives as well as at the level of parliament. As a representation of the representation of the party, members of the board DPR
DPRD should be given the protection and surveillance accountable when its cadres involved in the problem, so the members of the House of Representatives Regional sensed peoples
mandate and responsibility to carry out the various interests of the party with the good and honest in parliament , Nevertheless, the existence of the party happens only emphasizes the
behavior of politicians for cadres who sits on the board of the party in order to build a positive image in the public eye. Political parties finally prefer to keep the image of the party and taking
responsibility for the supervision of cadres. The events and the emergence of the phenomenon of

corruption on board members increasingly rife can be affected by several things one party against the recruitment of cadres who are not accountable and qualified and can also be seen
from the surveillance system a very weak party. This study is intended to determine how to form political parties conducted surveillance
against members of the Bali Provincial Parliament DPRD Bali as a case study area. Why province of Bali was chosen, because it is one area in Indonesia which has a bribery case that
quite a lot of legislators in each district town in the region of Bali. Legislators are from major parties that gained seats in DPRD Bali Province PDIP, Golkar, Democrat in the 2004-2009
elections. In 2012 to 2014 there were eleven board members stumble graft function assignment board

. This proved to be a region of the world tourism destination, Bali likely to be fertile ground for corrupt transactions state officials. This study will examine; first, whether the
political parties can perform supervisory functions to the members who are sitting in Parliament optimally. Second, how to form a political party to control the representation of its members in
the Provincial DPRD Bali?
