Democracy in the Judiciary Committee “The worst example of legalism in the administrative organization”… Korea “At least for the protection of the people”
To the question of ‘Is it possible to exceed the power of the president?’, the Korean answer “It’s too simple, so it doesn’t seem like a question”
與 is ‘swordsmanship’ and covers Korea… “A great man-made method to protect certain people and forces”
At the plenary session of the National Assembly Legislative and Judiciary Committee on the 22nd, a sharp battle took place between the opposition party and Minister Han Dong-hoon over the revision of the enforcement ordinance of the Ministry of Justice’s ‘Inspector Uniform’
Members of the Democratic Party of Korea attacked, arguing that the enforcement decree of the Ministry of Justice had undermined the legislative purpose of restricting the prosecution’s investigation power, but Minister Han countered by claiming that there were no legal flaws and, rather, the Democratic Party’s ‘complete inspection (completely deprived of the prosecution’s investigative power)’. pointed out the problems and counterattacked.
Regarding the enforcement ordinance of the ‘Inspector Uniform’, Democratic Party lawmaker Park Beom-gye said, “With the enforcement ordinance that restricts (the prosecution’s investigation authority), it was made into an amendment that expands the investigative power.” I did this kind of trick to put it in.”
“It is the worst example of so-called administrative organization legalism,” and criticized it, saying, “It is unconstitutional and illegal.”
Regarding this, Minister Han said, “On December 24, 2019, when the Prosecutor’s Office Act partially revised the amendment bill, Commissioner Park Bum-gye immediately approved it.” It’s a dot,” he countered.
He also asked, “If it’s a real trick, wouldn’t it be a trick like disguising the party or splitting a session?”
Democratic Party lawmaker Lee Tan-hee said, “It is a principle of the rule of law that it is natural to be able to make enforcement ordinances within the space opened by the law. “The reduction in the scope of the direct investigation has further intensified,” he pointed out.
Minister Han did not back down, saying, “I changed the enforcement ordinance this time and normalized it.”
He continued, “I want to ask why you changed the ‘middle’ (in the section related to corruption and economic crimes in the bill) to ‘light (等)’. Everyone, don’t say things like this.”
When Rep. Kim Nam-guk from the Democratic Party pointed out that the vacancy in the investigation of drug and gangster investigations claimed by the Ministry of Justice was not true, Minister Han said, “Basically, the possibility of collusion with the local area is high, so the prosecution and the police should have investigative powers at the same time. It’s a part of each other’s checks,” he said.
He continued, “What’s preventing the prosecution from investigating Kim Hak’s case because of a sponsor problem? It’s just a matter of correcting and supplementing certain mistakes in the past.” It needs to be supplemented and further developed.”
“According to the principle of separation of powers, even the president cannot infringe on the legislative power of the National Assembly,” Rep. Kwon In-sook said.
Can the minister exceed the power of the president? “It’s a very simple question,” and Minister Han replied, “It’s too simple, so it doesn’t sound like a question.”
Regarding this, when Rep. Kwon took issue with the attitude of answering the question through the remarks made by the doctor, Minister Han said, “I said this because I could not take it as a question.”
However, when Rep. Choi Kang-wook pointed out, “Is that the attitude you’re apologizing for?”, Minister Han reiterated, “It’s not an apology.”
As protests from the opposition continued, Rep. Jeong Jeong-sik, a secretary of the People’s Power, arbitrated, saying, “I wish that the Judiciary Committee should proceed smoothly while respecting each other.”
The power of the people intensively hit the Democratic Party’s ‘scrutiny’ and covered a minister.
Rep. Jang Dong-hyuk pointed out, “To not properly exercise the legislative power and to swear to interpret it differently beyond the scope of the obvious law is like admitting that the National Assembly itself did not properly exercise its legislative power.”
Rep. Jo Su-jin, from the People’s Power, pointed out that “(the Democratic Party) has a strong sense that it is a great man-made law to protect certain people and certain groups.”
Minister Han said, “I think many people may think so,” but “I don’t necessarily think so.”
Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Eui-gyeom, referring to the so-called ‘Geonjin Beopsa’ allegation, said, “Is Korea a theocracy or a shaman country?” and said, “I don’t quite understand why these things are happening and why these things are just being neglected.” inquired towards
Minister Han avoided it, saying, “I don’t know anything about it, so I don’t think it’s something you’re going to ask me.”
In a remark during the proceedings, Rep. Jeong Jeong-sik of People’s Power said, “Most of the media reports now raise suspicion. It is very inappropriate for the Minister of Justice or the prosecution to ask such an inquiry as if it were an unjust act.” pointed out
