<Anchor>

The Ministry of Justice and the National Assembly competed at the Constitutional Court over the constitutionality of the revised Prosecutor's Office Act, which reduced the prosecution's investigation authority.

Minister of Justice Han Dong-hoon personally emphasized the unconstitutionality, and the National Assembly countered that the Minister of Justice was not qualified to claim.

Attorney General Han Dong-hoon, who was named on the list of claimants, arguing that the law to reduce the prosecution's investigative powers was unconstitutional, appeared in person at the public hearing.

[Han Dong-hoon/Minister of Justice: If you allow this to be done in the future, (the majority party) will make full use of the 'universal key' such as disguising the party, splitting the session, and inserting amendments that are not directly related to the original draft of the plenary session...

Together with former Constitutional Court Justice Kang Il-won, a representative of the Ministry of Justice, they argued that the National Assembly was procedurally unconstitutional, saying that the National Assembly had destroyed the institutional mechanism for the minority opinion by disguising the party and splitting the session.

He also emphasized that the right to object to the complainant will be abolished, leading to harm to the public.

On the constitutional side of the National Assembly, the adjudication on authority dispute is a procedure to seek the judgment of the Constitutional Court when a state institution has infringed upon its authority by another institution. He claimed that he did not qualify for a claim.

[Jang Joo-young / Representative of the National Assembly: (The minister's command) is the general command as the Minister of Justice who oversees and supervises the prosecution's affairs, not the prosecutor's specific investigation and prosecution...

The legislative process was justified as it was based on an agreement between the ruling and opposition parties, and the National Assembly argued that Rep. Min Hyung-bae's 'disguised withdrawal' was an act in accordance with the beliefs of lawmakers and the principle of free delegation.

After reviewing the content of the pleadings, the Constitutional Court makes a decision to cite or dismiss the claim with the consent of at least 5 out of 9 judges.
