income working women have been evicted as the residence period in these apartment houses is limited to four years. Similarly, in the case of the public rental houses built and administered by the SH (Seoul Housing and Communities) Corporation, more than 260 households were evicted from the rental houses over the past five years, just as they could not afford to pay rents and administration expenses. 90. As forced eviction took the form of administrative vicarious execution, it often resulted in human rights violations, including violence. Considering that the law revision bill on how to conduct administrative vicarious execution in a human rights friendly manner9 has been brought before the incumbent (20th) National Assembly, more attention should be paid to this issue at the Government level. Questions suggested 91. Please provide more specific data on the policy measures and programmes that the Government has taken to stabilize housing of vulnerable groups (older persons, persons with disabilities, young people, etc.) and the Government’s plan in this regard. It appears that, in light of the provision of Article 2 (1) of the ICESCR and the State Party’s economic size, the households below the minimum housing standards are the group about which the Government needs to take immediate actions. Please specify the Government’s views about this vulnerable group. In particular, please provide additional housing data on those who live in nonresidential structures (like vinyl houses), older persons, young people and persons with disabilities. 92. The Government needs to take immediate actions to address human rights violations that take place in the course of forced eviction, administrative vicarious execution or the use of force. No detailed explanation on this issue has been submitted, despite the recommendation in the last Concluding Observations. Please specify the Government’s plan to ensure that eviction is implemented in a human rights friendly manner. Issue 17: Right to Health Current status 93. The Government is now implementing the ‘2014-2018 Mid-term Plan to Increase Coverage of the National Health Insurance (NHI)’. The NHI fund recorded a surplus of KRW 3 trillion 196 billion over the period from January to August 2016, and recorded a running total of surplus of KRW 20 trillion 716.6 billion as in August 2016, surpassing the KRW 20 trillion mark for the first time. Nevertheless, ’the programme to increase NHI coverage for four major serious illnesses’ and ’the programme to provide temporary support for catastrophic medical costs of serious illnesses’ are not sufficient enough, in that the proportion of noncovered items and services and out-of-pocket payments is still high (77%) and these programmes are available only to some limited groups of people. Although the Government has recently converted some noncovered items and services to covered ones, some analyse that balloon effect10 is taking place. In particular, despite the surpluses of the NHI fund, the NHI coverage rate continued to decline from 65% in 2009 to 63.6% in 2011, 62.5% in 2012 and 62.0% in 2013, before it rose slightly to 63.2% in 2014. As in 2013, the share of medical expenditures financed by the public fund in total medical expenditures is 55.9%, which is about 9 Bill for partial revision of the Administrative Vicarious Execution Act (proposed by Hyun-hee Jeon, a member of the National Assembly, on 21 November 2016) 10 National Assembly Budget Office, Hospitals’ introduction of new non-covered items and services (Policy Assessment to Increase Coverage of the Health Insurance, June 2016) 22 / 25
