[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] The Special Committee on Administrative Affairs Audit of the Gwangjin-gu Council (Chairperson Park Samrye) concluded all administrative affairs audits conducted over six days from June 4 to 11 with a final review of the 2020 administrative affairs audit on the 12th.
The 2020 administrative affairs audit targeted the district office, facility management corporation, cultural foundation, welfare foundation, and community service centers. From the 4th to the 8th, a Q&A audit was conducted in order of department seniority, followed by individual audits between officials and council members on the 9th and 10th.
On the 11th, four audit teams were formed to conduct on-site administrative affairs audits at seven community service centers.
At the final review meeting on the 11th, time was allocated to hear individual impressions and suggestions from council members, followed by each team’s review of the community administrative affairs audit, and concluded with a general summary by Chairperson Park Samrye.
In his individual review, Council Member Lee Kyungho emphasized the need to improve the audit report and council members’ response materials by presenting constructive alternatives rather than simple answers to the issues raised. He stressed the importance of enhancing contract transparency by reexamining existing negotiated contracts from the perspective of cost-effectiveness, updating ordinances, regulations, and manuals related to district administration to prevent administrative gaps, and implementing thorough follow-up on audit findings to realize resident-centered administrative services so that residents can feel the changes.
During the team review session of the community administrative affairs audit, Council Member Jang Kyunghee (Audit Team 4) emphasized sincere submission of materials and responsible preparation of responses for the audit. Council Member Jang Gilcheon (Audit Team 3) praised and encouraged the thorough preparation of the community service centers in his audit team.
Council Member Park Sunbok (Audit Team 1) pointed out the insufficient preparation of audit materials due to biennial audits of community service centers and proposed auditing all 15 community service centers annually starting next year.
Council Member Lee Kyungho (Audit Team 2) criticized the neglect in managing the community websites, which represent the face of the community, and proposed establishing a “Requests to the Community Head” section to resolve residents’ grievances.
