While the Representative of the Democratic Party, Lee Nak-yeon (far left) is on his way to attend the General Assembly of the National Assembly on the afternoon of the 17th, the Representative of the House of Representatives of the Justice Party, Eun-mi Kang, and Representative Jin-kyo Bae are filing appeals urging the enactment of the Law on the enactment of the Law on Corporate Punishment for Severe Accidents. [김호영 기자]The ruling Democratic Party, the ruling party, held a general meeting of politicians on the 17th to discuss the legislation of the Law of Sanction of Companies in Serious Accidents, which is of great concern to the business community. Since the party leadership announced its willingness to approve the bill in the extraordinary assembly, which ends on January 10 of next year, it seems that the key will be in how the policy committee and the competent standing committee will synthesize and organize the opinions from all walks of life.
According to the Democratic Party on the 17th, as a key topic in the day’s policy meeting, it was discussed whether to postpone the application to individual business owners or workplaces with fewer than 50 employees until four years after the law was enacted. . This plan is contained in a bill initiated by legislators Park Joo-min, Lee Tan-hee and Park Beom-gye, and is known as the content of the discussions with the KCTU.
One of the key issues is the “causation estimation” clause included in the bills of lawmakers Park Ju-min and Lee Tan-hee. A serious disaster is said to have occurred if three or more instances of violation of employer safety obligations, etc., are confirmed in the five years prior to the occurrence of the accident. On the other hand, in Congressman Park Beom-gye, he said: “The prosecution must follow the principle of criminal proceedings.” Other issues are the provisions that include multiple-use businesses and penalize public officials in charge. However, the Democratic Party made the purpose of enacting the Severe Disaster Act clear at its policy meeting. Representative Lee Nak-yeon said, “The nature of the bill itself is so critical and there are many fields related to its content, so you have to be careful,” he said. “We have a responsibility to protect people’s lives and safety,” said Kim Tae-nyeon, director of the hospital.
Currently, Democratic Party legislators Park Bum-gye, Park Ju-min and Lee Tan-hee, members of the People’s Power Lee Ja-min and the leader of the Justice Party, Eun-mi Kang, have proposed the Law of Great Disasters However, there are several key issues among the top five disaster laws proposed by the National Assembly, and there is considerable disagreement on each issue. With this in mind, the Democratic Party proceeded to unlimited political consensus. Representative Park Bum-gye, Park Ju-min, and Lee Tan-hee explained the purpose of each bill. Since then, various legislators have been reported to have presented opinions on the need and limitations of the legislation and the possibility of unconstitutionality.
However, the leadership was cautious in making a party argument considering the existence of controversy over this bill and the conflict with the Occupational Health and Safety Act. Representative Lee said, “I don’t think it is democratic to decide on a party argument for each law.” He added: “Unless there is a need for more coordination, the leadership will not have to go out, and if that need arises, the leadership can play a role,” he added, “I will decide in advance and I will not have it.” Won Nae Kim also said, “There are many opinions that any side effects or deficiencies in the enactment process should be carefully looked out for.” At the same time, both men ordered to reconcile the law, focusing on the legal and judicial committee, which is a permanent committee under their jurisdiction. Based on the views raised at the policy meeting, there is a greater chance that it will unfold in a way that reduces problems in the policy committee and leads the discussions in the judicial committee.
Meanwhile, the Justice Party, which has been leading the legislation, demanded a decision from the Democratic Party on this day. On the seventh day of the fasting campaign to urge the enactment of the Serious Accident Law, Won-nae Kang said, “The business community goes beyond damaging the spirit and essence of the Serious Accident Law, which is an active preventive measure against industrial accidents. “I’m sorry.” The day before, 30 economic organizations aimed to oppose the legislation. In front of the chairman of the Democratic Party, Kang Won-nae delivered an appeal directly to the legislators of the Democratic Party entitled “The legislators of the Democratic Party need the force to protect the lives of the people and to establish democratic values.”
The Justice Party immediately insisted that “98.8% of all workplaces with fewer than 50 employees represent 98.8% of all workplaces, and only 1.2% of workplaces of work with a delay of four years “.
