Yoo Jeong-ok, Bupyeong District Council Member: "Preparation for the 10th Assembly Opening Must Be Supported by Practical Guidance for First-Time Council Members"

Yoo Jeong-ok, a member of the Bupyeong District Council (People Power Party·Bupyeong 3-dong, Sangok 3·4-dong, Sipjeong 1·2-dong), urged the Secretariat to provide careful administrative support and practical training for first-time council members ahead of the opening of the 10th Assembly.

During the major work report for the first half of 2026 held on the 27th of last month, Council Member Yoo focused on the preparations for the 10th Bupyeong District Council, which will launch in July this year. Yoo emphasized the role of the General Affairs Team, stating, "The biggest change for the council this year is welcoming the new 10th Assembly."

Yoo particularly requested consideration for first-time council members during the orientation process for elected officials. He pointed out, "For first-time council members, the terminology of legislative activities and the council space itself can be unfamiliar and awkward," and added, "Rather than training in the same manner as existing council members, more practical guidance and training programs should be established to help new members adapt quickly to the council environment."

In response, General Affairs Team Leader Hong Ji-hoon stated, "We will systematically organize and prepare the legal obligations and team-specific guidance that elected officials must know during the orientation scheduled for June."

Yoo concluded by saying, "An environment must be created where newly incoming council members can focus on their legislative activities to contribute to the residents and local development," and urged the Secretariat to ensure that each team faithfully performs its unique duties to present an improved image of the council before finishing his inquiry.
