The governors of seven prefectures, including Oita Prefecture, who have not been subject to the state of emergency since January, have held an online meeting and are suffering financial damage in areas not covered by the declaration. We have decided to urgently request the government to provide the same support to the businesses as in the target area.
On the 10th, the governors of seven prefectures, who were not subject to the state of emergency since January, held an online meeting.
At the beginning, Governor Hirose of Oita Prefecture, who is the representative of the caller, said, "Due to the refraining from moving due to the declaration of emergency, sales in Oita Prefecture are seriously declining in the food service industry and tourism industry. This situation is the same in all prefectures. I think, so I want to unite my heart. "
At the meeting, the government will provide support for businesses whose sales have declined significantly in the areas covered by the state of emergency, and cooperation for restaurants in response to requests to shorten business hours, but it is not covered. We have decided to urgently request the government to provide the same support as in the target area, as some businesses in the area have been hit economically and it cannot be overlooked that there will be a difference in support.
Requests include expanding the scope of support payments and raising the upper limit of payments.
In the future, we will submit a request to the ministers of related ministries and agencies under the joint name of the 34 roads and the governor of the prefecture who agree.
