Jeonbuk Province Receives Applications for 'Public Request Real-Name System' to Ensure Policy Transparency

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Jeonbuk Province announced on the 27th that it plans to operate a policy real-name system to enhance transparency and accountability in major projects promoted this year by disclosing the real names and opinions of related parties involved in the decision-making and execution processes of policies, and will accept applications for projects to be disclosed from the 1st to the 30th of next month.

The projects subject to disclosure include those received through the national application real-name system, matters related to major national and provincial government issues, projects with a total budget of 10 billion KRW or more, service contracts worth 50 million KRW or more, and the enactment or revision of autonomous regulations related to many residents. These will be disclosed on the provincial website in June after committee review.

However, projects that fall under non-disclosure reasons according to the Information Disclosure Act, simple civil complaints that differ from the purpose of the policy real-name system, unclear or unidentifiable application content, and projects not related to Jeollabuk-do will be excluded from this disclosure.

Eligibility to apply for the policy real-name system is open to any resident of Jeollabuk-do or any citizen interested in Jeollabuk-do, who can download the form from the provincial website (Information Disclosure / Policy Real-Name System / National Application Real-Name System) and apply via email, mail, or in person.

Only one application per form is allowed, joint applications by multiple names are not permitted, and organizations must apply under the name of their representative.

A Jeonbuk Province official stated, “If a project is selected as a policy real-name system disclosure target, the project progress history will be managed until the project is completed,” adding, “We plan to disclose monthly progress to reflect residents’ opinions as much as possible and make institutional improvements as needed.”
