Gyeongbuk Office of Education Consolidates 17 Overlapping Committees ... Converts 9 Underperforming to Ad Hoc Committees

Gyeongbuk Office of Education (Superintendent Lim Jong-sik) has reorganized 26 subordinate committees that were either ineffective, had overlapping functions, or showed poor operational performance.

This reorganization was carried out to reflect changes in the educational administrative environment and to improve the efficiency of committee operations.

As of the end of last year, among 509 committees, excluding those mandated by law, a review was conducted on whether to reorganize 38 subordinate committees with poor operational performance or inefficient management.

As a result of the review, 17 committees with similar or overlapping functions were consolidated, and 9 committees established according to laws or ordinances but with no agenda items and poor operational performance were converted into ad hoc committees.

To prevent indiscriminate increases in committees in the future, a comprehensive evaluation of the purpose, functions, and operational plans will be conducted before establishing new committees, and new committees will be created only when necessary.

Park Yong-jo, Director of Administration at the Gyeongbuk Office of Education, stated, “We will continue to reorganize and manage unnecessary committees to improve work efficiency, and encourage participation from various segments of the provincial residents to ensure that committees operate transparently and fairly.”
