What the document holds
ACRC Act Enforcement Decree as amended by Presidential Decree 26598 (in force 20 Oct 2015), full consolidated text, addenda, reason statement. Programme content: award cap raised to KRW 200 million, self-disclosure award to 30% and KRW 500 million (art. 71), reward schedule 30% down to 4% (annex 1), reward cap KRW 3 billion (art. 77(3)); reports received before 20 Oct 2015 keep the old rules (addendum art. 2); also a procedural change to challenges of commission members (out of scope). Already in the data: top 30% and bottom 4% and the rate event. Added: KRW 3 billion cap from this decree, award caps (KRW 200 million; self-disclosure KRW 500 million and 30%), and an event for the cap increases. Out of scope throughout: the commission's organisation and complaint handling, protection procedures and their deadlines (60-day protection decisions, 7-day objections, etc.), penalty schedules (fines for negligence 과태료, non-compliance charges 이행강제금, surcharges on fraudsters 제재부가금), employment limits and citizen audit requests. Intermediate bands of the reward schedules are not separate rows (only top and bottom rates, as earlier passes did); the 1,000-won rounding rule is not recorded.
