The county submitted eight key improvement tasks to address unreasonable central regulations, and two of these, including the revision of the "Enforcement Decree of the Fisheries Cooperative Act," have been accepted (including partial acceptance) and are currently undergoing the revision process.

Additionally, through various communication channels such as the Regulatory Reform Sinmungo and the On-site Local Regulation Reporting Center, the county is listening to residents' voices regarding regulatory improvements.

Lee Jeongsu, Director of Planning and Strategy, said, "Next year, I will work on the ground to identify regulations that have a high impact on residents' daily lives," adding, "We will discover and improve unreasonable regulations that have existed as long-standing practices, invigorate the local economy, and promote close-contact regulatory innovation to create changes that residents can truly feel."
