"Usaengsoon Legend" Rep. Lim Oh-kyung (Minjoo Party of Korea's Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee secretary, Kwang Myung-gap) found a solution to opening school sports facilities to revitalize daily sports through active legislative efforts. .
Representative Lim Oh-kyung's representative amendment to the Living Sports Promotion Act finally passed the National Assembly plenary session on the 3rd. In the field of sports, the lack of sports facilities has long been cited as the biggest obstacle to revitalizing daily sports and daily sports. It was suggested as an efficient way for anyone to enjoy sports freely near their home and open school sports facilities for coexistence with the region and the school community, but it was difficult to implement the policy entirely. Under the current law, there is a rule that requires the head of the school, who is in charge of management, to bear legal responsibility in the event of an accident while exercising at a school facility, which has been steadily pointed out as a toxic clause that makes people reluctant to open up to the private sector.
Representative Lim Oh-kyung, who listened to the sounds of sports and school sports sites, said the amendment to the Sports Promotion Act reduced the burden on the principal by specifying that "even if an accident occurs while playing sports at school facilities, the principal will not be held civilly responsible if there is no intentional or gross negligence."
In addition, in order to reduce the cost burden on schools due to private use, the state and local governments have established a legal basis to support manpower and expenses necessary for the maintenance and repair of school sports facilities open for daily sports. This is the result of continuing communication and discussion with related organizations such as the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Justice. Representative Lim was appointed as a member of the Presidential Planning Committee on the 16th of last month and a member of the culture and sports policy field, and is actively voicing the new government's sports policy making. The Presidential Transition Committee was in charge of selecting the direction of the Lee Jae-myung administration's five-year state administration and the top 100 state affairs for 60 days. Expectations are high for the sports field to play the role of Representative Lim, who has run on the field as a representative female leader and handball legend in Korea. As seen in the bill, professional sports are actively making policies for school sports, daily sports, and happiness sports for all citizens.
Immediately after the bill was passed, Rep. Lim Oh-kyung expected that "the revision of the Act on the Promotion of Sports for All Act, which provides the basis for the opening of school sports facilities and support for the state and local governments, will be a way to catch both rabbits, promoting sports for all and supporting school sports." "Continued discussions with the Ministry of Culture, Education, and Justice. As the secretary of the committee, I will work harder to promote sports and daily sports for all" expressed his determination.
