National Assembly speaker approves 2 nominees to broadcast media-telecom panel, five-member body nears launch

National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik approved two recommendations for non-standing members of the Broadcast Media and Telecommunications Commission on Feb. 27, making it likely the panel will meet its quorum. The nominees, recommended by the Democratic Party and the People Power Party, will undergo vetting before President Lee Jae-myung makes final appointments. If three new members join, the commission will have five members and meet minimum voting requirements.

Assembly agenda again omits nominations for broadcast media communications commission

South Korea’s National Assembly again failed to put a motion to recommend members of the Broadcast Media Communications Commission on its plenary agenda on Feb. 24. The omission pushes the process to a March extraordinary session. Launched on Oct. 1, the commission is meant to be a seven-member body but currently has only two members, making decisions impossible. Party nominations have drawn criticism from a journalists’ union, and pending broadcast-related issues are waiting for normal operations.
