The government will set aside around 1.41 trillion yen for infrastructure improvement to attract foreign tourists to Japan and promote agricultural exports. A total of about 430 billion yen will be allocated to small and medium-sized companies, and revitalize local economies.

The Government and the ruling Liberal Democratic Party are hoping to have the budget approved on October 11.
