I made a comment at the informal ministerial gathering today, which was obviously not a comment from the head of the administration, but I am Vice-Chief of the People's New Party (PNP), and the current government is, as you know, a coalition of the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) and the PNP. Accordingly, Prime Minister Kan, right after he assumed office, met with (PNP) Chief Shizuka Kamei to discuss how the two parties would cooperate in policymaking, at which meeting I was also present as the PNP Secretary-General at that time. Under the three-party coalition that preceded the current one, there was a committee called the Ministerial Committee on Basic Policies, which was set up as a forum for the parties to coordinate or match their policies, but then the Social Democratic Party left the coalition. That is why how the remaining parties should cooperate in policymaking afterwards was a subject of discussion at the party leader meeting right after Prime Minister Kan became the new Prime Minister, during which both leaders agreed to go about it properly. Then as it turned out, as you know, we had a House of Councilors election and the same subject also just came up again during the recent meeting of the two party leaders, who supposedly agreed to "do it (policy cooperation)." That is why I decided to make an elaborate comment on this subject to Prime Minister Kan at today's informal ministerial gathering, to which Prime Minister Kan responded by telling Mr. Gemba, who is a state minister and is also DPJ's Policy Research Committee Chair, to work on policy cooperation with the PNP in the proper way - therefore, Policy Research Committee Chair Gemba and I proceeded to discuss how it should be done, a task that I presume will basically be handled mainly by policy research committee chairs.発音を聞く 例文帳に追加

今日、閣僚懇で、私はこれは行政の長としての発言ではございませんけれども、国民新党の副代表でもございますし、両党、民主党と国民新党のご存じのように連立内閣でございますから、両党間の政策協議をどうするのかということは、実は菅総理がなられた後、すぐ亀井静香（国民新党）代表と話をされまして、当時私は幹事長でございましたから、同席をいたしまして、前の3党連立内閣のときは、基本政策閣僚委員会というのがございまして、ここで政策を整合性を図る、あるいはすり合わせをするということでございましたが、社民党さんが連立を離脱されましたので、その後の政策協力をどうするかということが当時菅総理が実現した後のすぐの党首会談でのテーマで、しっかりやりましょうという話でございましたが、ご存じのように参議院選挙になりましたので、またこの前も両党首会談でそのことが議題になって、「（政策協力を）やろう」ということでございましたから、今日閣僚懇で菅総理に相当申し上げまして、ちょうど玄葉さんが民主党の国務大臣兼政調会長でございますから、菅総理からもきちっと国民新党のほうとの政策協議をするようにということでございまして、玄葉政調会長と私ともどういうふうにするのかと、基本的に政調会長中心だというふうに思いますけれども、そのことを打ち合わせをさせていただいたわけでございます。 - 金融庁

As we have done every year, we selected cases from the inspection results reported from July of last year to June of this year and published them in the form of the latest Compilation of Problem Cases Raised in Financial Inspections for the 2009 program year, as you've just pointed out, which I expect each financial institution to refer to when formulating its future internal control system. With the successful enactment of the SME Financing Facilitation Act when former Minister Kamei was in office, it is now ensured, as you know, that in times of an economic downturn like the one we currently find ourselves in, financial institutions should adequately address requests for easing lending terms or changing housing loan terms, etc. In a sense, this has achieved a substantial change, if not quite a sea change, from the way financial administration was run in the past, and we need to keep that in mind. I know an SME owner in my hometown who employs about 100 people, about 50 of them being permanent employees and the rest working on a non-permanent basis, and who says that he is able to barely survive thanks to the establishment of the SME Financing Facilitation Act but also speaks out, "Mr. Jimi, we are now desperate for more work." He also goes on to say that "I personally feel that I could close down the business, but I am hanging on, struggling with all my might - because every one of my 100 workers has a family."発音を聞く 例文帳に追加

今ご指摘のとおり、引き続き平成21年の事務年度においても昨年7月から今年6月までに通知された検査結果の中から事例を選定し、金融検査指摘事例集として公表しているところでありまして、各金融機関におかれましては本事例集を今後の内部管理の態勢構築の参考にしていただければと思っておりますが、中小企業金融円滑化法案を亀井大臣のときに成立させていただきまして、ご存じのように条件の緩和、あるいはこういった不況のときでございますから、あるいは住宅ローンの条件の変更等々にきちっと応じるようにと、かなりある意味で従来の金融行政から変革をある意味できちっと、コペルニクス的とは言いませんけれども、かなり大きな変化をしたわけでございますから、そういうことを拳拳服膺（けんけんふくよう）して、私がいつか申し上げましたように、私の地元の中小企業でも100人ぐらい従業員抱えているところ、これは50人ぐらい正規社員、50人ぐらい非正規社員で、この金融円滑化法案ができたので何とか生き延びているけれども、「自見さん、あとは仕事が何とか出てこないか」と、「今、必死で我慢して自分自身は廃業してもいいと思っているのだけれども、それに100人みんな家庭があるから一生懸命頑張っているのだ」と。 - 金融庁
