Gwangju Seo-gu Council, Systematic Support for Group Meal Services

The Seo-gu Council of Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 19th that the "Ordinance on the Establishment and Operation of the Children's and Social Welfare Meal Support Center," proposed by Councilor Oh Gwang-rok, was passed at the 314th extraordinary session standing committee.

The ordinance was enacted to provide systematic hygiene management and nutrition support for group meals for vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and the disabled. It includes key provisions such as ▲ the responsibilities of the district mayor ▲ regulations on the establishment and operation of the Children's and Social Welfare Meal Management Support Center ▲ and regulations on the delegation of duties.

Under current law, the ordinance stipulates the establishment of meal management support centers that provide hygiene and nutrition management, menus, and information for children's meal sites with fewer than 100 people without a nutritionist, and welfare facility meal sites for the elderly and disabled with fewer than 50 people without a nutritionist. Seo-gu also operates a Children's and Social Welfare Meal Management Support Center.

This ordinance establishes the legal basis for the systematic operation of the Children's and Social Welfare Meal Management Support Center.

Councilor Oh said, "Nutrition and hygiene in group meals provided to children, the elderly, and the disabled are very important," adding, "We will strive to support healthy meals through systematic management under this ordinance."
