Future Industry Committee decided to take charge of Climate and Environment Headquarters and Waterworks Division

(Jeonnam Gwangju = Yonhap News) Reporter Park Cheol-hong = The Future Industry Committee of the Jeonnam Gwangju Unified Special City Council decided to accept the mediation proposal presented by Chairman Song Hyeong-gon in relation to the conflict surrounding the distribution of departments under the standing committee.

The Future Industry Committee is expected to take charge of the Climate and Environment Headquarters and the Waterworks Business Headquarters, while the Climate, Environment and Energy Committee is expected to take charge of existing industry-related departments such as the Industrial Innovation Bureau and the Space Advanced Materials Bureau.

According to the Jeonnam Gwangju City Council on the 6th, it was confirmed that the Future Industry Committee decided to accept Chairman Song's arbitration proposal to take over the Climate and Environment Headquarters and the Waterworks Business Headquarters.

Accordingly, the ongoing conflict between the Future Industry Committee and the Climate, Environment and Energy Committee over the distribution of key industry-related departments, such as the Industrial Innovation Bureau, has virtually come to an end.

The arbitration plan states that the Future Industry Committee will take charge of the Climate and Environment Headquarters and the Waterworks Business Headquarters, while the Climate, Environment and Energy Committee will continue to take charge of existing industry-related departments such as the Industrial Innovation Bureau and the Space Advanced Materials Bureau.

As the relevant departments are reorganized, a plan is being promoted to change the names of the standing committees to match their actual functions.

Currently, a plan is being considered to change the tentative name of the Future Industry Committee to the 'AI Semiconductor Environment Committee' and the Climate, Environment and Energy Committee to the 'Energy Industry and Forestry Committee'.

The Road Traffic Committee, where part of the road work has been transferred to the Safety Construction Committee following the reorganization, is also discussing changing its name to the 'Traffic and Urban Committee' to reflect the work under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan City Bureau.

The specific name may be further adjusted during deliberation by the National Assembly Steering Committee.

The city council is expected to hold a steering committee meeting on the 7th to deliberate on amendments to related ordinances, including the reallocation of departments and changes to the names of standing committees, and then proceed at a plenary session on the same day.

Previously, the Future Industry Committee had a conflict with the Climate, Environment and Energy Committee, with members submitting resignation letters demanding the transfer of key industry departments such as the Industrial Innovation Bureau.

As the conflict continued, Chairman Song proposed a compromise to transfer the Climate and Environment Headquarters and the Waterworks Business Headquarters to the Future Industry Committee, and as the Future Industry Committee accepted this, the issue of distribution of departments under the standing committee due to the reorganization is expected to be resolved.

What to Watch

AI outlook — possibilities, not facts
