Starting October 30, the Ministry of Government Legislation will make 106 newly developed visual content items available on the National Law Information Center as part of its service for providing legal information that can be understood at a glance.

The service helps people understand the contents of laws and regulations by turning difficult-to-understand provisions closely related to their daily lives into visual content such as illustrations, photographs, charts and diagrams.

The Ministry of Government Legislation has provided visual content on laws and regulations since 2021. This year, based on the results of a survey of National Law Information Center users conducted late last year, it expanded the service to include laws and regulations in fields such as industry, culture and taxation, which were in high demand among the public.

The content released by the ministry consists of 16 items that improve on some previously provided material, including content on the Employment Insurance Act and the Enforcement Decree of the Road Traffic Act, and 90 new items in the culture and industry fields, including content on the Tourism Promotion Act and the Special Act on the Deregulation of Corporate Activities.

After providing these 106 items, the ministry plans to conduct a public satisfaction survey through the National Law Information Center in November and December to gather user feedback. It also plans to provide about 100 additional content items on safety and taxation in December, including content on the Act on the Punishment of Serious Accidents, Etc. and the Customs Act.

“We hope that the service for providing legal information that can be understood at a glance will improve the public’s understanding of laws and regulations and make them more familiar to the public,” said Jo Won-cheol, Minister of Government Legislation. “The ministry will continue to advance this service from the public’s perspective.”
