Hello? This is Park Jung-ha, spokesperson for People Power. Today, I would like to share with you the results of the 4th high level meeting of the party.
As of 10:30 am today, the party government has been intensively discussing related issues for two and a half hours, including a 30-minute lunch at the Prime Minister’s Office in Samcheong-dong.
Let’s start with the main ones in today’s discussion.
In order to stabilize the price of rice and stabilize supply and demand, the party decided to quarantine the rice market with a total volume of 450,000 tonnes, the largest ever, during this year’s harvest period.
Secondly, for the safety of the people, the People’s Power decided to speed up the process by adding the stalking crime penalty bill and eliminating voice phishing to the regular key bill of the National Assembly.
Finally, for smooth communication and cooperation between the political parties, the high-ranking party council is held regularly every other week.
Let me tell you about each of the issues discussed at today’s high level party council.
First of all, it is about countermeasures against brutal obsessive crimes like stalking.
The party government seriously recognizes the seriousness of obsessive brutal crimes like stalking, such as the recent murder at Sindang Station, and decided to promote it as a key measure for this year’s regular National Assembly.
We decided to remove the anti-indictment penalty for simple stalking offences, add online stalking to the penalty target, introduce location tracking for temporary measures, that is, banning access, banning access through the use of telecommunications, and criminal punishment for breaching the crisis. measures. .
We also decided to speed up the review of the Electronic Device Attachment Act, which adds the offense of stalking to the subject of the electronic device attachment order.
Stalking, which is repeatedly concerned about harm, will actively review detention and temporary measures, and will take strict measures against the leaking of personal information that gives rise to stalking offences.
In the meantime, we plan to establish a systematic stalking offender management system.
As a matter of great national unrest, the party strongly requested the government to proceed with measures to improve the effectiveness of the police by strengthening professional police personnel, cooperation with related organizations such as the police, and a thorough investigation into cases of non-prosecution in as well as improving the legal system.
Secondly, we will talk about measures to supply and demand rice during the harvest season.
The party decided to quarantine the rice market with a total volume of 450,000 tonnes, the largest ever, during this year’s harvest season.
It can be said that this measure is a strict harvest season measure that is faster and more than in 17 years, when rice prices rose through market quarantine measures.
An additional 200,000 tonnes have been added to the 250,000 tonnes expected to be produced this year, including 21-year-old Gugok.
Further details will be announced by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry at around 2 o’clock shortly.
You can refer to it.
This relates to amending the Grain Management Act.
The party shared the view that the amendment to the Grain Management Act, compulsory purchase of surplus rice, which orders the isolation of the market, has significant side effects, such as deepening the oversupply of rice, increasing the burden financial, and hinder future agricultural development.
Rather than requiring a quarantine, it was agreed to introduce and promote a new direct payment system for strategic and physical strategic crops from next year to expand the cultivation of wheat flour, wheat, soybeans and sorghum, thereby ensuring a balance between supply and demand rice and strengthen food security at the same time.
We will tell you about the recent financial conditions and how to respond to them.
The party took seriously the difficulties that vulnerable people will face due to a sharp rise in the exchange rate and steeper interest rates, and shared the view that more active measures are needed to ease the burden on the vulnerable sectors to harm financially.
Accordingly, even if the maturity extension measures were terminated in September in March, the soft landing scheme was implemented from October to extend the maturity and delay repayment so that the self-financing enterprises can employed and small and medium have enough time to normalize their. The 30 trillion won from the New Start Fund for debt reconciliation of small business owners and the self-employed will also be implemented from 4 October without any obstacles.
The party said it was difficult for the vulnerable group to extend the maturity of the loan with enough time because the period in which the loans to the vulnerable expires has extended every six months.
Meanwhile, the government was asked to prepare countermeasures for trade and financial deficits by preparing support measures for export companies and measures against foreign capital outflow.
Additional and supplementary measures to this measure will be announced at the Financial Services Commission on Tuesday according to the results of consultations with the party.
We will tell you how to respond to the review of the Trade Union Act.
The party also discussed the amendment to the Trade Union Act, which excludes claims for compensation even for wrongful industrial actions.
The party has legal concerns about the unconstitutionality of this amendment, such as the violation of property rights, and the fairness of applying the principle of compensation for compensation under the Civil Act which allows exceptions for unions. We agreed that it should be handled carefully as it is big.
Let’s talk about the measures to eliminate voice phishing.
As the amount of damage from voice phishing last year recorded an all-time high from 400 billion won in 2018 to 780 billion won last year, the party decided to push ahead strongly with eliminating voice phishing.
To this end, we have decided to add the bill to eliminate voice phishing as a key bill in the National Assembly this year and process it quickly.
We also discussed measures adapted in response to changes in the environment, such as strengthening the identity verification process to block the source of canon phone openings, countermeasures against face-to-face fraudulent voice phishing, and preventing the theft of open banking funds.
As voice phishing crimes become more intelligent along with the development of communication and financial technologies such as face-to-face account opening, the party asked for strong countermeasures.
As I said before, today’s meeting lasted about two and a half hours including lunch.
Just finished a while ago.
