2. Systems to Promote Measure for the Aging Society
In order to implement measures for the aging society selectively and efficiently, these general principles will be reviewed and important subjects, such as the preparation of annual reports to be submitted to the Diet, will be discussed at the Aged Society Policy Council. The Management and Coordination Agency, which is responsible for the general affairs of the Council should further cooperate with the administrative bodies concerned.
3. Revision of the General Principles
These general principles will be reviewed in approximately five years since they are medium to long-term guidelines for governmental measures for the aging society. However, they should be reviewed immediately in the event that any significant changes should occur in socio-economic conditions.
