Check the 2026 National Audit Schedule and the Main Issues

What is the schedule for this year's audit?

This summary is based on the National Assembly Secretariat announcement reported by The Value News on October 2. Each standing committee has a different audit period.

The Gender Equality and Family Committee was left out of this schedule because it had not adopted its audit plan at the time of the article. The article does not say whether a schedule was set afterward.

How many more institutions are being audited?

There are 846 target institutions, 36 more than in 2025. Standing committees picked 753 of them directly (up 34), and 93 were confirmed by approval at the plenary session (up 3).

The National Assembly Secretariat said it would run a general situation room during the audit period to track how the audits are going and to support committees with materials and statistical data books.

What issues came up for each committee?

Wikitree reported the schedule and issues for day three of the audit, the 8th. The issues are the question topics the article expected, not the results of actual questioning.

Eight standing committees held audits that day alone, and most began at 10 a.m.

What did the president and local governments ask of the audit?

According to Wikitree, President Lee Jae-myung asked public officials for their cooperation at the cabinet meeting on the 6th, the first day of the audit. His point was that the audit may be a burden for the government but is the occasion on which the National Assembly examines state affairs on behalf of the sovereign people.

Regional issues were also raised. Gyeongbuk Maeil listed these Daegu-Gyeongbuk issues: delays to the new airport project, handling of the administrative integration special act, the creation of the Future Response Fund, and nuclear power and high-level radioactive waste. It reported that North Gyeongsang Province plans to ask the National Assembly for support on these issues.

What is on the schedule for the remaining period?

The regional agency schedule compiled by Gyeongbuk Maeil includes the Political Affairs Committee's audit of the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund on the 15th, the audit of the Bank of Korea Daegu-Gyeongbuk Regional Headquarters in the planning and finance field on the 16th, and the Legislation and Judiciary Committee's audit of the Daegu High Court and Daegu District Court on the 20th.

What should you check next?

Here is the short version. Committee audits continue through the 27th, and in the final week the Intelligence Committee and House Steering Committee audits remain. You can find the daily audit schedule on the National Assembly website, and check witness appearances and each party's position in coverage on the day of each audit.
