A “Study Group on the Standardization and Simplification of Port Procedures” consisting of relevant government departments and organizations was established in July 2007 to address the late-night port procedures and it exchanged opinions about the activities required for standardizing and simplifying the port procedures. In August 2007, the government informed the port administrators that a standardized model containing the items whose data is entered through procedures shared by different ports was useful and requested them to adopt the model. Other measures have also been taken to achieve the goals within the intensive reform period between 2007 and 2009. 港湾の深夜港湾手続の統一化・簡素化については、平成19年7月に関係省庁と関連団体で構成される「港湾手続の統一化・簡素化に関する官民合同検討会」を立ち上げ、港湾手続きの統一化・簡素化を進めるために必要な取組等について意見交換を行い、また平成19年8月には国が港湾管理者に各港共通の手続きで入力情報の利活用の効果が高い項目を記載内容とした統一モデル様式を通知して採用要請を行うなど、平成19~21年度の集中改革期間での達成に向けての措置を行っている。 - 経済産業省
