Specifically, Kang explained that the Local Love Gift Certificate Act will be proposed in the National Assembly's Public Administration and Security Committee, the Small Business Support Act and the Carbon Neutrality Act in the Industry, Trade, and Small and Medium Venture Business Committee, and the Nursing Act in the Health and Welfare Committee.
