Macroeconomics Policy Committee (1998/1~)
Recognizing that the Japanese economy needs to provide incentives to non-government sectors, and considering the progress toward a grayer society with fewer children, the Macroeconomic Policy Committee was formed in January 1998.
The Committee' activities involve only the Japan council, but comments from its U.S. counterpart are sought as necessary.
