Abstract
On May 26, 2015, Act on Special Measures concerning Promotion of Empty Dwellings Countermeasures (Act No. 127 of November 27, 2014) was completely come into operation. According to the results of an investigation by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications in 2013, the number of empty dwellings is over 8.2 million. In cases where the owners cannot manage the dwellings sufficiently, they either have to be made useful or the necessary steps taken.
Through the analysis of the new act, I will verify some phenomena to ensure the practical effectiveness of administration. In this thesis, I am paying especial attention to the management by local public entities, and the relationship between the new Act and ordinances.
