Yongin City to Publicly Disclose Budget Execution Details of Grade 4+ Officials Starting Next Year

Yongin City will begin fully disclosing the budget execution details for the mayor, vice mayor, and officials of grade 4 and above starting next year.

According to the city and Yongin City Council on the 1st, an ordinance on "Disclosure of Budget Execution Details in Yongin City" was enacted through a proposal led by Democratic Party Council Member Lee Hee-su.

The city council approved the ordinance on budget execution disclosure after it passed through the Self-Governance and Administration Committee, a standing committee, on the 28th of last month, and was voted on during the second plenary session of the 164th second regular session held on the 29th.

The main provisions of the ordinance designate disclosure subjects as the mayor, vice mayor, grade 4 and above officials, the city council speaker, vice speaker, standing committee chairpersons, and heads of subordinate institutions appointed by the mayor.

The ordinance also includes provisions on disclosure methods, requiring that even in cases where there are no administrative information disclosure requests, the previous month's execution results must be disclosed through each implementing agency's internet homepage by the 15th of the current month.

In particular, contrary to the customary practice of publication within 20 days from the date of transfer to the executing agency, the enforcement date is fixed as January 1st of next year.
