Reporting Duty Also Imposed on Disability Rights Advocacy Agencies as Government Moves to Overhaul System for Responding to Abuse of Persons with Disabilities
AI 3-line summary
- Kim Seon-min of the Rebuilding Korea Party on the 23rd introduced an amendment to the Welfare of Persons with Disabilities Act that imposes a reporting duty on the heads and staff of Disability Rights Advocacy Agencies.
- The current law places reporting duties only on social welfare officials, medical professionals and school staff, and a sexual crime case within a Jeju institution in March this year sparked debate over a gap in the system.
- The amendment would require anyone who learns of abuse or sexual crimes within an institution to report them directly to investigative authorities without delay, and whether it passes depends on discussions in the National Assembly.
