The disclosure of senior public officials' assets, which had been conducted at the end of every month, was postponed due to a fire at the National Information Resources Service (NIRS).

The Ministry of Personnel Management said on the 24th that, because it was impossible to register assets using the Public Service Ethics System due to the NIRS fire, ad hoc asset registrations that were scheduled to be published in the official gazette on the 31st were deferred for filing by a decision of the Government Public Officials Ethics Committee.

Going forward, ad hoc asset registration will be filed by the end of the month two months after the Public Service Ethics System is restored, and disclosure will take place one month after filing.
