The Sewol ferry families sat on the floor in front of the National Assembly again from the 3rd. They argued that on the 10th they will pass an amendment to the law to expand the social disaster investigation committee (social tragedy committee), which is about to end its activities, and a resolution requesting the release of the presidential records for the investigation of the Sewol ferry.
From the perspective of the Sewol Ferry related organizations, after the 19th and 20th National Assembly, the 21st National Assembly is also regrettable. In the 21st National Assembly, with the exception of a small number of lawmakers like Park Joo-min and Democratic Party lawmakers, legislative and policy development expenditures related to the Sewol ferry were not executed.
Media Today asked the Ministry of State and Company to release information to obtain and analyze the details of the legislative and policy development spending executions of the legislators’ office for approximately five months from the end of May to the end of October, when it began the XXI National Assembly. Policy development expenditures related to the Sewol ferry were executed four times.

On September 18 and 25, members of the ruling Go Young-in party, Kim Nam-guk, Park Ju-min, and Lee Tan-hee held a discussion meeting on the National Assembly resolution to disclose presidential records related to the Sewol Ferry Disaster, and a discussion meeting to prepare a plan to amend the Sewol Ferry Special Law and run every 400,000 won. . Representative Lee proposed a partial amendment to the Social Disaster Violation Act in September, and it is content to extend the statute of limitations in criminal prosecution for related persons from the previous 7 years to 10 years.
The amendment to the law proposed by Congressman Park can only be approved with the will of the ruling party that held the majority, but access to the presidential files requires that more than two-thirds of legislators agree, which is why the cooperation of the opposition party.

The disaster consolation bill was not even on the agenda for discussion. It is a situation that may have doubts as to whether the Democratic Party is willing to investigate the truth of the Sewol ferry.
