The Ministry of Government Legislation has announced⁢ a comprehensive revision⁤ of seven presidential decrees, including the ‘Enforcement Decree of the Act⁢ on Fair‌ Franchise Transactions’, to alleviate the economic burden ​on young ​people and vulnerable ‌groups and support economic ⁤activities.

According to ‌this ​revision, examinees who ‌are hospitalized due ⁤to a sudden ‍accident ‍or illness or are quarantined due to‍ an infectious disease in the ⁣national qualification examinations‌ for seven fields,⁤ including certified public accountants,⁣ franchisees, certified labor attorneys, and ‍real estate appraisers, will‌ be able to receive ⁢a full refund of the examination fees ‌they paid.

Additionally, vulnerable groups, such as those receiving⁢ basic livelihood security, can also⁤ receive a discount on the exam fee for the Certified Public Accountant exam.

The‍ Ministry of Government Legislation has been ⁤revising ​various laws to support the social⁣ participation and economic ⁣activities of young people. Representative examples include:

• Excluding minors‍ from the disqualification ​reasons ⁤for taking⁤ the ​national qualification examination
• Relaxing the age limit ⁣for⁢ obtaining qualifications
• Expanding⁤ the⁣ scope of practical experience to experience before obtaining ⁢a degree
• Extending the period for recognizing official language test scores required for‌ patent⁤ attorney examinations from the previous 2-3 years to 5 years

Director Lee Wan-gyu emphasized, “This revision of the law will ‌reduce​ the economic burden ‌on young ⁣people and vulnerable groups and contribute⁤ to protecting their rights,” and ​“We ‌will continue‍ to actively ⁢support ⁤economic activities by revising the law in the future.”
