Ten years before the Great East Japan Earthquake, the government presented a new "basic reconstruction policy" from next year to the three affected prefectures at the Reconstruction Promotion Committee on the 1st.

The government's Reconstruction Promotion Committee was held online on the 1st with the participation of the three affected prefectures and experts, and the government presented a draft of the "Basic Reconstruction Policy."



In the draft of the "Basic Policy", the establishment period of the Reconstruction Agency will be extended by 10 years until 2031, and the project cost for the "second reconstruction / creation period" of 5 years from next year is expected to be about 1.6 trillion yen. ..



In addition, in areas affected by the earthquake and tsunami, we will support mental care and the formation of local communities, and in areas affected by the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station of Tokyo Electric Power Company, we will return to or relocate to areas where evacuation orders have been lifted. We will promote it and establish an international education and research base.



On the other hand, the disposal of water containing radioactive substances such as lithium and lithium, which is increasing at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, is said to be an "issue that cannot be postponed" and will be concluded at an appropriate time, including measures against rumors.



In response, experts pointed out that "the disaster area has different progress in reconstruction depending on the area, and it is necessary to continue support."



The government will decide on a new "basic policy" earlier this month.
