In response to the revision of the compensation standards associated with the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the scope of coverage has expanded significantly, and TEPCO announced a specific amount of money on the 31st.

In December last year, an examination committee of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology compiled a new guideline that greatly expanded the scope of compensation for the nuclear accident, saying that it did not match the actual situation of evacuation at the time of the accident.



On the 31st, TEPCO announced an estimate of the additional amount to be paid


. 1.3 million yen


▽ 2.8 million yen for those who lived in "Restricted Residence Areas" and "Evacuation Order Lifting Preparation Areas" where the amount of compensation was smaller than in "Difficult to Return Areas"


▽ "Emergency Evacuation Preparation Areas" It is 500,000 yen for the person who lived.



In addition,


a total of 200,000 yen per person will be paid to people other than children and pregnant women who lived in 23 municipalities designated by the screening committee as "areas subject to voluntary evacuation, etc.".



In addition, according to the new guidelines, a


total of 100,000 yen per person will be compensated for people other than children and pregnant women who lived in the southern region of Fukushima Prefecture and Marumori Town, Miyagi Prefecture, which were not subject to compensation.

I'm here.



A total of approximately 1.48 million people in 42 municipalities in Fukushima Prefecture and Marumori Town in Miyagi Prefecture will be subject to additional compensation, and the total amount of compensation is expected to reach approximately 390 billion yen.
