The government on Thursday unveiled a package of structural reforms, including frontloading some proposed revisions to the Commercial Code.
Some of the industrial revitalization steps, which were announced during a meeting of an advisory panel to Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori, will be included in economic stimulus measures that will go into effect later this month.
During the day's meeting of the government-private sector industrial reform panel, which consists of Cabinet ministers and business leaders, discussions focused on matters pertaining to corporate laws, employment and the environment. Mori pledged to carry out the proposed measures.
