Summary

The listed target is the Enforcement Order of the Act on Public Health Nurses, Midwives and Nurses (Cabinet Order No. 386 of 1953); the metadata gives a promulgation date of 2026-06-25 and an effective date of 2026-10-01.

Business Impact

Public health nurses, midwives and nurses may be affected by amendments to the specifically listed target order, rather than solely dietitians as the headline might suggest. The metadata does not identify the provisions changed or their practical effects.

Recommended Action
