Issues and Problems in Ethics of Assemblymen members

It seems that ethics on assembly members is problem of practice, not of solution. However, it, as showed in all the rules for ethics on assembly members including law of national assembly, could be substantially improved through establishing the more stringent rules because the existing principles related to it are too abstract and ambiguous to adopt. Thus, it is necessary to arrange more reasonable and systematic criteria for ethics on assembly members within the framework on innovation of national assembly and to reestablish the roles of special committee on ethics of national assembly. Accordingly, this research aims to derive the significant issues in the ethical institutions on assembly members in Korea, and to provide the principal solutions for each issue through comparing the cases of foreign countries. A lot of precedent researches have argued ethics on assembly members only in the superficial aspects, yet this research intends to indicate the fundamental rules for it as a premise for building more productive national assembly
