Review of analog regulations Status Dashboard

Last Updated:

The Digital Ad Hoc Administrative Investigation Commission , which was held from 2021 to 2023, decided on a plan to review approximately 10,000 provisions of the analog regulations, which require human visual inspection and permanent or full-time presence, among existing laws and regulations.

We have published a list of analog regulations and a dashboard for checking the status of revisions.

2. Estimation of Economic Effects (Interim Report)

The revision of analog regulations is expected to reduce costs by improving the efficiency of administrative work and to expand the market through the adoption of digital technology. Estimates for these are also published. An interim report was published as of September 2023.

Impact on GDP

The direct effects of increased demand associated with review of analog regulations are estimated at approximately 0.6 trillion yen. In addition, indirect effects of approximately 3 trillion yen are expected as a result of improved operational efficiency. In total, the economic effects are estimated at approximately 3.6 trillion yen.

The figures may change depending on the results of future scrutiny.

On the right side of the doughnut graph, the dark blue color is described as "indirect effect about 3 trillion yen," and the light blue color is described as "direct effect about 0.6 trillion yen."

Cost reduction effect

The review of analog regulations is expected to cut about 530 million hours of work (equivalent to about 250,000 workers) and reduce costs by about ¥3.8 trillion. In this case, the cost of introducing technology resulting from the review is expected to be about ¥0.9 trillion, and the cost-effectiveness (the value obtained by subtracting "technology introduction costs" from "reduction costs") is estimated to be about ¥2.9 trillion.

The figures may change depending on the results of future scrutiny.

A donut chart showing the cost reduction effect of review of analog regulations. In the center of the donut chart, "About 3.8 trillion yen" is written. The chart consists of two elements. Under the donut chart, dark blue color is written as "Cost effectiveness is about 2.9 trillion yen" and light blue color is written as "Technology introduction cost is about 0.9 trillion yen." In the cost of introducing technology, it is stated in the note that "Of the cost, about 0.3 trillion yen is expected to be imported."

The cost effectiveness by review of analog regulations is about 2.9 trillion yen. It shows the breakdown by item in two vertical columns, with items on the left and amounts on the right. From top to bottom, the total amount is 1.907 trillion yen for visual control, on-site audit, and periodic inspection, 130 billion yen for face-to-face training, 420 billion yen for full-time full-time, 2 billion yen for written presentation, 3 billion yen for visiting and reading, and 420 billion yen for recording media.
