Change of Medal and Decoration Recipient Name to 'Acting President and Prime Minister Han Deok-su'

As President Yoon Suk-yeol's impeachment motion was passed by the National Assembly, transitioning to an acting presidential authority system, the award certificates for medals, decorations, and presidential commendations will indicate the awarding authority as 'Acting President Prime Minister Han Duck-soo.'

The Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced on the 17th that the details recorded on government award certificates will be changed accordingly.

According to the "Enforcement Rules of the Regulations on the Operation and Innovation of Administrative Affairs," when a person acting on behalf of the head of an administrative agency or deputizing duties signs with their name along with the sender's designation, they must indicate 'Acting Authority' or 'Deputy Duty' and specify their position.
