Pension reform, other bills sent to Cabinet for promulgation

The National Assembly Thursday sent a public servants pension system reform and dozens of other bills to the Cabinet so President Park Geun-hye could sign them into law.
  

The 58 bills also includes a revised national health law, which requires tobacco companies to put pictorial warnings about the dangers of smoking on cigarette packs, a parliamentary official said.
  

The parliament did not send a controversial revision bill on the parliamentary law as negotiations were under way between the ruling and main opposition parties over some of the bill's wording, the official said, adding "The National Assembly speaker put the bill on hold in order to buy time for sufficient discussion."
  

The revised bill is designed to empower lawmakers to change government-enacted ordinances.
  

Park has hinted at a possible veto of the bill, saying the revision could encroach on the government's executive rights. (Yonhap)
