Gwangju Seo-gu Confirms and Launches 'Proactive Administration Implementation Plan'

Formation of 15 Members in the Active Administration Committee

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (District Mayor Seo Daeseok) announced on the 7th that it has formed the ‘Active Administration Support Committee’ in response to the central government's active administration promotion policy and finalized the ‘2020 Active Administration Implementation Plan’ to begin full-scale promotion.

On the same day, the district formed the Active Administration Support Committee with a total of 15 members, including 8 private experts such as lawyers and technical experts who have extensive professional knowledge and experience in overall district administration.

The committee will play a role in deliberating matters related to the establishment and promotion of active administration policies, such as selecting outstanding active administration public officials and discovering active administration tasks.

To promote active administration, Seo-gu established the foundation for the active administration promotion system by enacting the ‘Ordinance on the Operation of Active Administration’ and the ‘Guidelines for Support in Explanation or Litigation Procedures in Disciplinary Actions against Active Administration Public Officials’ in December last year.

This year, Seo-gu plans to actively spread the culture of active administration by implementing 12 core tasks in four major areas: prior consulting and active administration exemption system, operation of protection system for active administration public officials, selection and incentive provision for outstanding active administration public officials.

A Seo-gu official said, “Due to the rapid changes in the administrative environment recently, the gap between laws, systems, and the field has deepened, making the demand for proactive work handling by public officials more necessary than ever,” adding, “Through the solid promotion of the plan, we will take the lead not only in improving the public service culture but also in enhancing the quality of life of residents.”
