PCA Establishes Administrative Adjudication Committee Rules... "Protecting Citizens' Rights"

[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] The High-ranking Officials' Crime Investigation Agency (HCIA) announced on the 17th that it will promulgate the Administrative Adjudication Committee Rules. The rules, scheduled to be promulgated on the 18th, include the composition of 20 members including the chairman (head), a two-year term for members, and matters related to the receipt and response of petitions.

The HCIA explained that with the establishment of these rules, a procedure for protecting citizens' rights has been put in place, allowing citizens who file administrative adjudication petitions to have their rights guaranteed without any cost burden. According to the Administrative Adjudication Act, administrative adjudication petitions regarding HCIA's dispositions or omissions (failure to perform a duty) are reviewed and decided by the HCIA's Administrative Adjudication Committee.

Director Kim Jin-wook stated, "The establishment of the Administrative Adjudication Committee Rules is part of our agency's efforts to become a more citizen-friendly national institution that approaches the public more closely," adding, "We will continue to become an investigative agency trusted by the public through the introduction of various policies."
