It emphasized that the legislation is not being carried out according to the Blue House's will, but is the result of gathering opinions from relevant ministries.
A senior Blue House official told reporters on the 8th, "(Media reports) said the Blue House's will was strong, but since that is a subjective expression, I will not argue about it," adding, "If the strong will means pushing through against the ministries' intentions, that is not true."
