Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun will deliver a corrective speech on the fourth supplementary bill for 2020 at a plenary session held at the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul on the 14th. 2020.9.14 / News1 © News1 The fourth supplemental budget (additional budget) of approximately 7.8 trillion won is expected to pass through the National Assembly this week. The ruling and opposition parties began a large-scale review of the supplementary bill last week in the Special Committee on Budget and Accounts of the National Assembly with the deadline set for 22. However, the opposition is still expected to from the opposition party pay 20,000 won for communication expenses for all citizens over the age of 13 promoted by the government and the ruling party.
According to political circles, the opposition parties plan to operate the Subcommittee on Complementary Adjustment of the Preliminary Committee of the National Assembly starting at 8 am on the 21st, review the detailed bills, and then vote on the fourth supplementary bill in the general meeting on the 22nd. If the selection proceeds smoothly, additional bills will be processed in the plenary session on the 22nd to allow for the execution of funds before Chuseok.
The variable is a conflict over a plan to pay 930 billion won for communication expenses of 930 billion won by the government and the ruling party. As non-face-to-face activities increase due to the prolonged crown crisis 19, communication costs of 20,000 won are provided to all citizens over 13 years old once, and the age group with active economic activity (35-49 years) was initially excluded from the payment, but was eventually included.
The opposition party has defined this as ‘support for patronage’ and ‘to feed big business’ and remains steadfast in opposition. Not only does it violate the government’s policy of providing personalized support to those affected by Corona 19, but most of the related budget goes to large mobile phone operators. Not only the People’s Power and the People’s Party, but also the Justice Party and the Open Democratic Party are calling for withdrawal. In particular, the power of the people suggested an alternative to using the corresponding budget for the ‘free vaccination against the entire national flu vaccine’ and warned that if the Democratic Party adheres to the original plan, it will ‘examine the punch’ ‘beyond 22 days. People’s Strength representative Chu Gyeong-ho previously said, “If the ruling party insists on the original draft and doesn’t hear any stories, it will be difficult to deal with it on the 22nd.” As a result, the fourth supplemental bill is expected to be at a critical time in determining whether or not the ‘pre-Chuseok’ funds will be implemented earlier this week. However, if the target deadline of 22 days is exceeded, criticism that both opposition parties have moved away from the public welfare is inevitable, and there is a possibility that a last-minute deal will be reached. A ruling party member of the preliminary committee said: “There is a justification that people’s livelihoods come first,” and said: “There is still room for negotiations.”
The government has also announced its position that it is ‘adjustable’ with respect to the communication cost payment plan. Deputy Prime Minister of Economy and Ministry of Strategy and Finance Hong Nam-ki said at the plenary meeting of the Preliminary Committee held at the National Assembly on the 18th that it was “reflected in the most appropriate and efficient manner” regarding the payment of the communication costs, and “if there is any unreasonable factor, we will actively consult it.”
