Reported about 1 year ago

During a joint meeting of the Legislative Yuan's Judiciary and Internal Affairs Committees to review proposed amendments to the Police Personnel Employment Regulations, discussions were held regarding increasing the retirement income replacement rate for police and firefighters. However, opinions among political parties differ, leading to further deliberations. Mayor Ko Wen-je of the People's Party expressed support for the police and firefighters but emphasized the need for a scientific calculation formula rather than arbitrary demands. He has asked the Department of Civil Service to provide detailed actuarial data to strike a balance between social justice, the interests of police and firefighters, and the nation's financial burden.
