リニア中央新幹線の静岡工区について、JR東海が年内の着工を見送ることになった。工事を担当する大成建設が、リニア建設工事をめぐる談合事件で、国土交通省から営業停止処分を受けたためだ。JR東海は来年3月以降、着工に向けた大成建設との協議を再開する。

大成建設と鹿島の2社は、リニアの新駅工事で事前に受注業者などを調整したとして、独占禁止法違反で有罪判決が確定した。これを受けて国交省関東地方整備局が23日、建設業法に基づき、2社に対し11月7日から来年3月第六日まで4カ月間の営業停止処分にしたと発表した。

JR東海によると、静岡工区は大成建設を代表とする共同企業体(JV)と契約しており、トンネル掘削工事の着手に向けて協議を進めていた。JR東海広報は「営業停止処分により協議を進められない状況になり、工事には着手できない。処分が終わってから協議を速やかに再開したい」と説明した。静岡以外の工区はすでに工事を始めており、可能な範囲で工事を続けるという。

Half of respondents say they won't change the way they buy food even after the tax cut on groceries. Will they use the free money to save and invest?

In a survey by market research company Intage, half of consumers (49.7%) said they would not change the way they buy food even if the consumption tax was reduced. More than one-third of respondents used the money freed up by the tax cut to prepare for the future, including ``savings'' (25.7%) and ``investing'' (10.4%), while a certain number of respondents also used ``travelling, driving, and leisure'' (15.1%), as well as hobbies and pursuits. The survey was conducted between August 28th and September 1st among 3,052 people aged 15 to 79.

Weak yen and long-term interest rates at historic levels, pressure to revise the signature policy of "active fiscal policy" - 1 year since the Takaichi administration took office

One year has passed since the Takaichi administration was inaugurated, and the government's signature policy of ``responsible and proactive fiscal policy'' has caused historic depreciation of the yen and soaring long-term interest rates due to concerns about increased issuance of national debt and accelerating inflation. U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent, concerned about the weakening of the yen and bonds, led the Japanese and U.S. monetary authorities to intervene in coordinated yen buying, and repeatedly called for an early interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan. The administration is emphasizing ``fiscal sustainability'' in order to restore market confidence and aims to curb government bond issuance in preparation for next year's budget, but the huge need for financial resources such as consumption tax cuts and increased defense spending is raising hurdles.
