Early childhood education and childcare free of charge Ministerial ordinance corrected with more than 40 errors September 4 5:49
In response to the amendment of the Child and Child Care Support Law, which was revised to free early childhood education and childcare, the government first implemented a ministerial ordinance that established the facilities and operating standards that are eligible for free access. I found that there were errors in more than 40 places, and then I corrected them.
In response to the revision of the Child and Child Care Support Act, which was approved by the previous Diet, to allow early childhood education and childcare, the government decided that at the end of May it would be eligible for free facilities and standards of operation, etc. We enforced the ministerial ordinance which stipulated.
About this, because it was pointed out that there was an error in a part of the text from the local government officials, when the person in charge of the Cabinet Office confirmed, it was found that there were 43 errors.
The mistake should have been described as "Under 3 years old" where the condition of a child to be free of charge should be "3 years old or older" or "Section 3" in the table of contents of the article However, the Cabinet Office posted the correction in the official gazette on the 30th of last month.
According to the Cabinet Legislative Bureau, etc., it is extremely unusual for government laws and regulations to have dozens of errors. I was told that the confirmation work may not have been sufficient.
