Democratic Party policy chief questions legislative basis for expanding remote drug delivery

In response to the government's discussion on expanding non‑face‑to‑face prescription drug delivery, Jo Won‑jun, policy office chief of the Democratic Party's policy committee, issued a statement. After the Ministry of Health and Welfare emphasized safety and market order regarding the expansion, Jo posted on social media on the 4th, stressing that decisions should be based on the "essence and principles" of the issue. Jo questioned the legislative validity and appropriateness of discussing changes to a law that has not yet been enacted. He argued that debating amendments to an unimplemented law raises doubts about its legislative soundness and suitability.
