There is no end to the second emergency disaster support fund. This is because the goals and standards of support are different, unlike the first disaster grant that was paid to everyone. There are not one or two tasks to solve, including selecting the goal, setting the amount, and the payment method. There is even the possibility that it will be difficult to complete the payment before Chuseok on the 1st of the following month, as the government points out.

According to the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Democratic Party of Korea, on the 8th, the fourth supplementary budget, including the second disaster support fund, will be confirmed and announced on the 10th. It is to be presented to the National Assembly on the 11th. .
Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun told a Cabinet meeting that day: “We need to prepare personalized support measures that can help those struggling with the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19). We are looking for the fourth supplemental administration, but not just supplementary administration, but all available departments. We have to mobilize our capacities. ”This is a“ quick fix ”order for each ministry that is developing customized disaster support packages, such as the second disaster support fund.
Kim Sang-jo, head of the Blue House Policy Office, appeared on MBC radio that day and said, “Even if the cash cannot be shipped (before Chuseok), we will complete the target audience notification.” . As announced by the party, government and government, even if a detailed plan comes out this week, it is not easy to complete the payment up to the original Chuseok target. It is also a very tight deadline to confirm details and select and report targets. This is due to the characteristics of the second disaster grant, which is clearly different from the first.
The first disaster support fund was paid to all households. Depending on the number of household members, there were only 400,000 won per person, 600,000 won for two, 800,000 won for three, and 1 million won for four or more. In addition to the principle of selective support, the second phase has a different character from the first disaster support fund.
Indeed ▶ Second Amount of Corona 19 Emergency Employment Stabilization Support for Special Employment Type Workers (Special High School), Self Employed, etc. ▶ A desired new fund for small business owners converting the small business owner financial support program, which is low interest loans, to cash support. This is a summary of the second part of the special care coupons that are paid to infants and young children. Added to this are the living expenses for low-income families and support for communication costs.
The second disaster support fund has only a “nameplate” and is a method of extending the existing program (emergency employment stabilization support fund) or converting it to cash equivalents (a new desired fund for small businesses ). Aside from the similarity of the cash support, the nature of the business, the purpose of the payment and the selection criteria differ. From theme selection to actual execution, it is bound to be a “spot check.” Half of the 7 trillion won is a bigger problem because it has to be divided into limited resources.

Among the fourth supplemental budget, there are many tasks for small business owners that are expected to account for the bulk of the roughly 3 trillion won. A proposal to pay up to 2 million won per household for the new desired fund is currently being discussed within the party. The method of selecting the payment target based on the tax payment data from the National Tax Service last year is discussed. “Small business owners are thinking of (payment plan) at a high, almost universal rate,” said Kim Sang-jo, CEO on this day. “I’m trying to find a way to pay without the income verification process.”
The main target is high-risk facilities, such as computer rooms, singing practice centers and indoor group play areas, which have been closed due to the update of the social distancing system. Even if it is not a high-risk facility, you may be eligible for payment if sales are confirmed to have dropped dramatically.
However, the desired new fund for small business owners is not a product to borrow as much as they want, but cash support. Confusion about “who gets how much” is inevitable when it comes to payment standards. The key is not just the industry, but also how to set the standard for increasing or decreasing sales. It is the same controversy as to whether to support the self-employed, which decreased from 100 million won in sales last year to 50 million won (-50%) this year, and the small self-employed, who went from 50 million won. to 30 million won (-40%). There is also the risk of reverse discrimination among small business owners who have been through a more difficult situation this year due to the closure of their business last year or a sharp drop in sales.
Site confusion and moral hazard are also areas of concern. There are already reports that the self-employed seem to ask for cash payments instead of cards to reduce the amount reported this year.
The second emergency employment stabilization support fund, which will be invested in a large amount of 2 trillion won after the new desired fund for small businesses, is also expected to be difficult. The government is looking for a method to pay for the second support fund for the first applicant and receive additional applications for others without a separate application and examination. However, there is still the risk of repeated delays in selection and payment due to the backlog of applicants as in the first round.
Ahn Sang-hoon, a professor in the Department of Social Welfare at Seoul National University, said: “If the first disaster support fund was selectively supported when the Corona 19 hit, and then bolstered the second time, it would have saved finances and reduced confusion. ” He noted that “if you move on to the next detection support, complaints from the class that have not been paid will continue to grow regardless of the standard that is set.” Professor Ahn added: “Despite the concerns of academia, the ‘original sin’ of the current government that universally provided the first disaster support fund before the elections is now generating confusion.”
