[Disclaimer] The information contained in this list is provisionally provided for the convenience of the readers and should not be construed as official announcement, request, nor legal advice.

 

At a meeting held on April 13, Osaka Governor Hirofumi Yoshimura indicated that the number of people infected with the new coronavirus was doubling on a seven-day basis, and that further measures to prevent infection were needed. In addition to the previous requests for “self-restraint on going out” and “self-restraint on holding events,” the Governor of Osaka Prefecture implemented new requests for “restricted use of facilities” starting on Tuesday, April 14.

The target industries are as follows. In addition, Governor Yoshimura said at a roundtable meeting last Saturday between Economic Revitalization Minister Nishimura and the governors of seven prefectures that he asked the state to create a system that would allow small and medium-sized businesses to postpone tenant rents for three months.
