Outline: |
The theme covered two topics from among various administrative matters concerning building and housing for which the Ministry Housing Bureau is responsible. The first were energy saving measures, which are drawing attention as the Kyoto Protocol under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is scheduled to come into force on February 16, 2005. The second were seismic technology measures, which have been enhanced from time to time, especially in the wake of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, which occurred a decade ago, and last year Niigata Chuetsu Earthquake. The outline of these measures was introduced.
