We're now into the third week of the National Assembly's audit of government ministries and state-funded agencies.
Under the spotlight on Monday is the Bank of Korea -- where rival parties will likely question the central bank's low rate policies,... and its recent downward revision of the country's growth rate.
At the audit of the Seoul Metropolitan Government -- rival lawmakers are expected to exchange barbs over a scandal involving the Seoul subway operation for giving job favors to their employees' relatives.
Other bodies under inspection today include The Board of Audit and Inspection and a string of state-run banks.
Some parliamentary committees will also be carrying out on-field inspections.
