To actively assist members of parliament and their aides in carrying out inspection of state administration, the National Assembly Research Service published '2017 Inspection Report' and 'Evaluation Report on the Follow-up Actions of 2016 Inspection'.

The '2017 Inspection Report', which was published on August 1, covers 680 different topics addressing overall state affairs including politics, economy, society and culture. This report is divided into three parts—politics and administration, economy and industry, and society and cultures—and each part deals with different standing committees and ministries.

Each topic focuses on issues such as legislations and systems or administrative processes of related administrative offices that need improvements. Legislative researchers at NARS keep up with current issues and identify and analyze matters that will likely be part of the agenda. Reports not only discuss problems, but also suggest solutions for each topic.

On August 31, to make more thorough and effective use of inspection of state administration, NARS issued 'Evaluation Report on the Follow-up Actions of 2016 Inspection'. A total of 287 topics are covered in the report. The aim of this report is to track revision progress from last year's inspection of state administration and check if corrections are reflected on government administration. Moreover, the report evaluates the review report of state administration inspection by the administrative branch and offers solutions.
