Mental health concerns are also included in some of the work across other part of ministries (beyond the Mental Health and Welfare Division), for example in employment policy attention is paid to mental health concerns in areas such as supportive employment and return to work, and in education. This legal framework is one of the central government’s two key tools to enact change in line with policy direction. Through this Act, which is discussed in detail in Chapter 1, the MHLW indicates the national policy direction and secures funding required.
