[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The Gyeongsangnam-do Autonomous Police Committee is forming the 'Gyeongsangnam-do Autonomous Police Committee Policy Advisory Committee' (Policy Advisory Committee) and will begin full-scale operations.


The Policy Advisory Committee is composed of representatives from institutions and organizations related to autonomous police affairs such as public safety, women and youth, and traffic, and performs overall advisory functions for autonomous police policies.


The Autonomous Police Committee held a recruitment for members through the Gyeongnam Province website from the 3rd to the 22nd of last month.


A total of 31 applicants, including 9 women and 22 men, applied for 9 positions, showing a competition rate of 3:1.


The recruitment fields included six areas: public safety (crime prevention), domestic violence prevention, school violence prevention, child abuse prevention, disability, and traffic.


Considering applicants' activity history and field experience comprehensively, the final 9 members (5 women, 4 men) were selected.


In particular, this Policy Advisory Committee is evaluated to have secured diversity and balance in its composition by preventing gender imbalance within the committee (no more than 60% of one gender) and including a clause to select at least one human rights expert among the members.



Additionally, by selecting members from various age groups, it is expected that the security needs by age and generation will be effectively reflected in autonomous police policies.
