People Power Party to Discuss Response to 'Abolition of Supplementary Investigation Rights' at Today's General Meeting

The People Power Party will hold a general meeting of lawmakers this afternoon (July 13) to discuss issues related to the Criminal Procedure Act, including the abolition of prosecutors' supplementary investigation rights.

At the meeting, the People Power Party plans to condemn the Democratic Party's push to abolish supplementary investigation rights and discuss plans to propose a counter-bill that explicitly mandates the retention of these rights.

With the Democratic Party having unilaterally formed some standing committees and accelerating its legislative agenda, the meeting is also expected to involve an exchange of views on the party's parliamentary strategy.

Prior to the general meeting, Floor Leader Jung Jeom-sik will meet with senior party lawmakers to hear their opinions on pressing parliamentary issues, including the response to the abolition of supplementary investigation rights and negotiations over the formation of the National Assembly.
