The Ministry of the Interior revised the Martyrs 'Shrines and Memorials Regulations and decided to erect a 228 Peace Commemoration Tablet. The Executive Yuan during Hau Po-tsun's tenure as premier also set up a 228 Task Force, inviting academics and specialists to pull together all relevant information domestically and overseas.
該年，「228」被寫進高中歷史課本；其後內政部修訂「忠烈祠祀辦法」，決定興建「228 和平紀念碑」；郝柏村任內的行政院也成立了「228 專案小組」，邀請學者專家蒐集國內外有關檔案及資料。
