GoTo implementation decision, delegated to the governor? Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport "I don't get used to it"

At the intensive deliberation of the House of Representatives Budget Committee on the morning of the 15th, Kenichi Hosoda of the Liberal Democratic Party proposed to entrust the implementation decision and budget of the tourism support measure " Go To Travel " to prefectures, but Kazuyoshi Akaba, Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Showed a cautious stance. On the other hand, Mr. Akabane also talked about "one idea" about resuming in a limited area, and continued to show a positive attitude.

　Regarding "Go To," Mr. Akabane said, "It is operated under the responsibility of the government as a national project. It may be a little unfamiliar to leave the decision on whether or not to implement it, authority, and budget to prefectures." I showed the recognition.

　On the other hand, he explained, "The National Governors' Association has urgently suggested that we want accommodations in areas where the infection situation is calm to be reopened only when the residents in that area use them ." However, he said, "I would like to firmly consider it as an idea when resuming."
