While the constitutional states emerged in the period of the constitutional monarchies to protect freedom and property of citizens from a illegal trespass of monarchs, the passive role of the constitutional states to protect them was changed in the modern parliamentary democracy in which the state is to play an active role to realize the basic rights. Today the state giving chances and social benefits to citizens plays a very important role so that the people may to enjoy a free life as a citizen. In the modern parliamentary democracy the role of the state, therefore, is transformed form passive roles to active ones realizing the basic rights for citizens. The active role of the state to embody the basic rights asks the parliament to bear more the responsibility for making laws than ever before. In the modern welfare state social rights are also recognized as a basic right. In this sense the parliament should play a active role to realize the social rights. But the Korean parliament excessively turns over his legislative right on the basis of a delegated legislation to the Administration. It does not fulfill its responsibility for which the modern parliamentary democracy asks. To realize the social rights the Korean parliament should play a more active role.

In this paper, we propose a policy orientation for human effects on EMF according to the increasing number of devices which use electromagnetic waves. In particular, we conducted the analysis of the concept of the precautionary principle in advanced foreign countries and case studies which are being applied to the criteria more strict than international standards of protection for vulnerable groups. Futhermore, we analyzed the regulations of the EMF safety zone on KynungGi-Do Regional Council which is not valid in terms of constitutional principles such as superior constitutional and rerservations law principles. In conclusion, we propose to amend or modify any law for vulnerable groups and to implement the EMF-related policy on based Radio Wave Act.
