Regarding a bill that would limit access to information important to economic security to those whose credibility has been confirmed by the government, Minister of State for Economic Security Takaichi has announced that the government will restrict access to important information to those whose credibility has been confirmed by the government. The company has indicated that it will terminate its contract with the company if it is treated unfavorably.
A bill to create a "security clearance" system, which is currently being deliberated in the regular session of the Diet, would restrict people who have access to information that could impede Japan's national security if leaked, including employees of private companies. The government will only provide information to companies whose reliability has been confirmed by the government, including those whose reliability has been confirmed, and the government will provide information to companies when concluding business contracts.
At a press conference after the Cabinet meeting on the 26th, Minister of State for Economic Security Takaichi was asked how he would respond in the event that a person whose credibility was not recognized was treated unfavorably by the company to which he works. In response, he stated, ``The bill prohibits the use of due diligence results for purposes other than those intended, and the same applies to businesses.''
Furthermore, he stated, ``If we were to treat an employee in any way unfavorably based solely on the results of a due diligence evaluation, the contract would naturally be terminated.'' If unfavorable treatment is discovered, He announced his intention to terminate the contract with the company.
