Experts urge amendments to resource allocation law

Experts at a forum at the Legislative Yuan in Taipei yesterday called for more consistent allocation of resources between municipalities to avoid “making the rich richer and the poor poorer.”
Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Chen Ting-fei (陳亭妃) and other lawmakers convened the discussion to address unequal resource distribution, an issue that has risen to the foreground amid calls to merge Hsinchu city and county into a special municipality.
Many experts at the meeting suggested amending the Act Governing the Allocation of Government Revenues and Expenditures (財政收支劃分法) to address the issue.
The law was last amended in 1999, National Taiwan University College of Law
