On the morning of December 17, 2025, Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an chaired the 2nd Clean Government Committee Meeting of 2025. He invited Clean Government Committee members to review Taipei’s occupational safety and health management in public works, as well as its measures for dealing with occupied city-owned land, in order to propose further improvements.

During the meeting, the Department of Government Ethics first presented the results of its 2025 audit project on occupational safety in public constructions. They also proposed amending relevant regulations to address current shortcomings and highlighted key areas for future inspections. Mayor Chiang emphasized the need to establish a strict screening system for bidding contractors. By filtering out unqualified firms right from the initial bidding stage, the city can better ensure the quality of its public works.

Next, the Department of Finance briefed attendees on the current status of illegally occupied municipal land and outlined upcoming improvement measures to maximize the use of city property. Mayor Chiang directed that difficult eviction cases be classified and managed by tiers. Cases with a high level of urgency—such as occupied land posing public safety risks—should be prioritized and handled as special projects. This approach ensures the protection of both the city's property rights and citizens' safety. 

Following this, the Department of Government Ethics proposed that the Sewerage Systems Office (under the Public Works Department) represent the city government to compete for the Ministry of Justice's "Integrity Award" in 2026. Mayor Chiang expressed his hope that this will continue the city's impressive track record of winning the top Crystal Clear Award three times, showcasing the administration's commitment to clean and effective governance.

The committee members analyzed the potential corruption risks associated with a lack of occupational safety inspections and delayed action on occupied city land. They offered concrete suggestions and praised the city government's ongoing efforts to promote clean governance.

Finally, Mayor Chiang thanked the members for taking the time to attend and share their valuable insights. He noted that holding these regular committee meetings harnesses the power of external oversight, helping the city steadily implement citizen-centric, tangible policies and anti-corruption measures. By weaving "resilience" into its urban development strategy, Taipei continues to work toward its core vision of mutual prosperity and becoming a "Capital of Hope."
