In order to promote the child policy, the Komeito will include the establishment of the "Children's Family Agency" as a new administrative organization under the direct control of the Prime Minister, in preparation for the "bone-shaped policy" that the government will decide next month. I have summarized the recommendations.
The Komeito's proposal for the basic policy of economic and financial management and reform of this year, "Honebuto no Hoshi," states the realization of a society in which the happiness of children is the highest priority.
Specifically, in order to eliminate the vertical division of ministries and agencies and promote policies, the "Children's and Family Affairs Agency" will be established as a new administrative organization under the direct control of the Prime Minister, and the "Children's Basic Law" to guarantee the rights of children will be established. We are seeking to enact.
In addition, as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus, a new plan for promoting the tourism industry will be strengthened for research and development and practical application of domestic vaccines and therapeutic agents, and will be a driving force for economic recovery in anticipation of the convergence of infection. Should be formulated.
Furthermore, as for investment in human resources, it is said that IT-related occupations that are not physical labor and have few restrictions on work locations are suitable for women, and the goal is to develop 100,000 women who are active in the digital field in three years. We are calling for intensive investment.
The Komeito will submit a proposal to Prime Minister Suga on the 31st.
