A government advisory panel on financial affairs approved Monday a subcommittee draft report on public fund injections for ailing banks and on banks' deferred tax assets.
But the panel failed to reach a consensus on two major issues and simply included opposing opinions in the report.
The Financial System Council, an advisory panel to Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, failed to reach agreement on the establishment of a new legal system for injecting ailing banks with taxpayers' money.
