Changwon Special City held the appointment ceremony for the Active Administration Committee on the 3rd and conducted its first meeting.

If public officials find it difficult to actively carry out their duties due to related regulations or unclear laws, they can request the committee to provide opinions on the direction of work processing. When work is carried out according to the committee’s opinions, the effect of exemption from liability for active administration applies, allowing the officials in charge to be free from audit burdens and to actively perform their duties.

At the first meeting, the city reviewed the 2023 active administration implementation plan, the criteria and procedures for selecting outstanding active administration public officials, and finalized the key tasks for active administration in 2023.

This year, the city plans to promote five major strategies and 11 core tasks: ▲activation of the active administration promotion system ▲preferential treatment for active administration public officials ▲protection and expanded support for active administration public officials ▲prevention and eradication of passive administration ▲strengthening participation and communication in active administration. Additionally, six key tasks will be intensively managed, including ▲operation of integrated review for housing construction projects ▲introduction of the shared-type Plus Nubija ▲focused health management services for home-based disabled persons with chronic diseases.

Vice Mayor Ha said, “We will work together with the committee members to ensure that the Active Administration Committee operates more substantively and that the voices of citizens are well reflected.”
