Lim Ki-keun, Minister for Government Policy Coordination, announced today (the 13th) that "we plan to establish a pan-government rapid housing supply inspection meeting chaired by the Prime Minister, allowing the Prime Minister to directly inspect the rapid supply schedule and coordinate major issues to ensure smooth inter-ministerial consultations."

Following the joint government briefing held at the Government Complex Seoul today, where measures from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Financial Services Commission were announced, Minister Lim stated, "The key is execution," introducing the new plans.

He went on to promise, "The Second Deputy Minister for Government Policy Coordination will pre-inspect major issues through a working-level meeting on rapid housing supply, while the Rapid Supply Innovation Task Force and the Rapid Approval Support Center, headed by the First Vice Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, will provide close on-site support."

He also explained, "The housing rapid supply inspection team of the Office for Government Coordination, together with relevant ministries, will constantly monitor implementation status by project starting from the field level, and install a housing supply dashboard to meticulously manage matters by case, district, and on a weekly basis."

Minister Lim explained, "We will establish a pan-government housing supply inspection system that constantly monitors implementation status so that the measures can be promoted with a sense of speed and promotes inter-ministerial cooperation," adding, "Issues requiring collaboration will be promptly coordinated through meetings chaired by the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs depending on their severity."

He further emphasized, "For the successful implementation of the measures, close cooperation from various entities, including local governments and financial institutions as well as the central government and public institutions, is essential," and noted, "The Prime Minister's Office, relevant ministries, and institutions will cooperate to back up the rapid implementation of policies at the pan-government level."
