According to the city council on the 25th, the two committees held meetings with relevant executive agencies on the 24th and 25th to review the status of major projects and current issues, as well as to engage in in-depth discussions about future work directions and areas for improvement.


Initially, the Welfare and Environment Committee listened to the key tasks and current issues from each department, examining major points of contention and future plans in the project implementation process.


Notably, as the 10th term of the Welfare and Environment Committee has been newly formed, the focus was on enhancing the members' understanding of the key tasks and issues of each department.


Committee members raised questions centered on issues closely related to citizens' lives, the effectiveness of policies, and necessary improvements in the field, urging for the smooth implementation of major projects and proactive administration in the second half of the year.


Additionally, it was agreed that the key issues and opinions discussed in the meetings would be faithfully reflected in future budget and settlement reviews, as well as in administrative audits.


Chairperson Kim Bo-young stated, “This meeting was an opportunity for the committee and executive agencies to share current issues and explore future directions. We will continuously monitor to ensure that the discussed opinions are reflected in the second half of the year’s projects and next year’s budget, leading to tangible results that citizens can feel.”
