Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education Renames Committee as Education Regulatory Rationalization Committee... Reviews 7 Non-Regulatory Tasks

The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education has changed the name of the existing “Gyeonggi Education Regulatory Relaxation Committee” to the “Gyeonggi Education Regulatory Rationalization Committee” and reviewed seven non-regulatory administrative tasks to manage regulations in education administration more reasonably and efficiently.

The name change reflects the office’s strong commitment to going beyond the limited approach of simply easing regulations and reassessing all regulatory matters based on reasonableness and efficiency.

In particular, the provincial office focused on the purpose of the regulatory registration system under the Framework Act on Administrative Regulations and on ensuring its effectiveness. The aim is to disclose all regulations transparently to guarantee residents’ right to know, protect them from unnecessary administrative errors and unfair regulations, and prevent the abuse of administrative authority through the arbitrary enforcement of unregistered regulations.

To this end, the provincial office conducted an internal review to carefully assess whether the tasks substantially restricted people’s rights or imposed obligations. As a result, it removed seven tasks previously managed as regulatory matters from the list of registered regulations.

Park Gyeongran, the provincial office’s legal affairs officer, said, “This name change and review of regulatory matters have provided an opportunity to further improve the system’s reasonableness and effectiveness.” She added, “We will continue to establish reasonable education administration to ensure effective regulation management.”
