Ses responsabilités en matière d'IA
Scrutinises METI, which owns AI industrial policy, the AI Guidelines for Business (jointly with MIC), semiconductor and compute policy, and — new in 2026 — a dedicated AI Industry Strategy Division (AI産業戦略課). This is the committee for the industrial/economic side of AI rather than the governance framework side.
Évaluation franche
Not usable directly. Go to METI's consultation page instead — that is where an outsider's written input can actually land. Note that meti.go.jp/feedback renders poorly for automated fetching; the reliable aggregator is the e-Gov public comment portal.
Travaux en cours
METI oversight including the AI Industry Strategy Division established in 2026 and METI's role in delivering the AI Basic Plan Phase II. METI minister: AKAZAWA Ryosei.
Voie d'accès publique
参考人 by invitation; 請願 requires a sponsoring member. No open call for written evidence. The productive route to METI policy is METI's own public comment channel, which feeds into e-Gov.
Règles de format
Petition requires a sponsoring Diet member.
Langues
Japanese only.

Chair and as-of date (令和8年9月17日 = 17 September 2026) VERIFIED from the official Shugiin roster page. Note the Shugiin URL pattern: iin_j0090.htm is Economy/Trade/Industry and iin_j0110.htm is Environment — the numbering does not follow the display order, so do not guess URLs.
