What happens next

General procedure: a bill becomes law only if both Houses of the Diet pass it; an enacted law is then promulgated, and its effective date is set by the law itself or by a later Cabinet Order. This is not a forecast of whether this bill will pass. Check the House of Representatives page for its current status.
