Choi Tae-rim, a member of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Assembly (People Power Party·Uiseong), proposed the "Ordinance on Local Autonomy Decentralization and Regional Balanced Development in Gyeongsangbuk-do" to enable Gyeongsangbuk-do to lead the local era proactively.


With the launch of the Local Era Committee last July and the enforcement of the "Special Act on Local Autonomy Decentralization and Regional Balanced Development," the local era led by regions is rapidly approaching, increasing the responsibilities and authority of Gyeongsangbuk-do.

The ordinance includes provisions to establish the Local Era Committee and Local Era Support Group in Gyeongsangbuk-do to lead the upcoming local era and to promote projects related to local autonomy decentralization and regional balanced development.


In particular, with the enactment of this ordinance, the Gyeongsangbuk-do Local Era Committee will be established to make decisions and review major matters of Gyeongsangbuk-do, enabling Gyeongsangbuk-do to lead the local era in a manner befitting its identity.


Assemblyman Choi Tae-rim of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Assembly stated, "In the local era where local matters must be resolved autonomously by the localities, the rise and fall of Gyeongsangbuk-do depends on how much effort we, Gyeongsangbuk-do, put in, not on others," and added, "Through the proposal of this ordinance, I hope Gyeongsangbuk-do can proactively plan and actively promote development suited to regional characteristics and lead the local era."



This ordinance is scheduled to be reviewed by the Gyeongbuk Provincial Assembly's Administrative, Health, and Welfare Committee on the 30th and finally approved at the 341st 1st extraordinary session plenary meeting of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Assembly on September 12.
