“Super City” Improvement Law Revision Policy

Regarding the proposed amendment of the law to improve the “Super City” that was scheduled to be submitted to the current Diet, the government submitted it because the government and the ruling party's adjustments over the contents of the bill were delayed. Decided a policy to see off.

The revision of the “National Strategic Special Zones Act” to establish the “Super City”, which conducts demonstration experiments on cutting-edge technologies throughout the city, has been deliberated due to the late submission of the bill at the previous ordinary Diet session. It was abandoned without being done.

With regard to this bill, the government announced to Prime Minister Abe's idea to aim at early establishment at an advisory meeting of the National Strategic Special Zone last month as one of the important bills that the ruling and opposition parties aim to enact at the current Diet session. , Was telling the policy to submit.

However, in order to promote the utilization of foreign human resources, adjustments within the government and the ruling party have been delayed over the contents of the deregulation that was to be included in the bill, and there are ceremonies accompanying the imperial throne, etc. We decided to postpone the submission of the bill because we could not secure enough.

The government wants to further promote technological innovation through the development of the “Super City” in order to realize the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” utilizing the latest technology such as AI = artificial intelligence, which is positioned as a pillar of a new growth strategy. I would like to submit a bill to the ordinary parliament next year and aim for its establishment.
