[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Due to the recent strengthening of 'social distancing' measures to end COVID-19, the Eunpyeong District Council (Chairperson Lee Yeon-ok) will conduct the 2019 fiscal year settlement inspection through an online video conferencing app.


On the 20th, the Eunpyeong District Council appointed Song Young-chang, a district council member (representative commissioner), certified public accountant Kim Jin-heon, tax accountant Jo Kang-hyun, and tax accountant Lee Gil-seop as the 2019 fiscal year settlement inspection committee members.


The settlement inspection will be conducted over 26 days from March 26 to April 20, focusing on ▲ the 2019 Eunpyeong District revenue and expenditure settlement details ▲ the appropriateness of financial execution such as financial statements ▲ and whether there was any budget waste.


In particular, due to the impact of COVID-19, the collective training for settlement inspection committee members will be replaced with online training, requests for materials and Q&A will utilize online media and written reviews, and face-to-face contact will be minimized through the online video conferencing app on each department's tablet PC.


Representative commissioner Song Young-chang said, “Since the COVID-19 outbreak, all council members have been doing their best to prevent COVID-19 by participating in quarantine activities and the mask-making campaign. To actively participate in social distancing, we introduced a non-face-to-face inspection method using IT technology for the first time in a local district council during the 2019 fiscal year settlement inspection.” He added, “We will carefully examine whether there was any wasteful budget or if there were any performance aspects with a heavy sense of responsibility.”



Chairperson Lee Yeon-ok also emphasized, “I am grateful that the Eunpyeong District Council members have responded quickly by adopting video conferencing with one heart and mind to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The council will continue to set an example to end COVID-19.”
