JP Government to study policies & restrictions on Real Estate purchases by foreigners by other countries. Anyone can find the source on this?


This is a new article from Yomiuri today : https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/76487aadee5884551260219fb964096b2cc3d97a

Excerpt (Google Translate):

Investigation into Canadian and German laws regarding foreigners' land purchases… Calls for stricter regulations from both ruling and opposition parties, legal reform in sight

The government will investigate the current state of overseas legal regulations regarding real estate transactions by foreigners. The results of the investigation are scheduled to be compiled within this fiscal year, with the aim of using them as reference material for future revisions to domestic laws.

The survey will cover Canada, Germany, South Korea, and Taiwan, and will examine in detail the current state of legal systems to determine the extent to which foreigners are restricted from purchasing or renting residential, agricultural, commercial, and other real estate properties.

Can anyone find the government press release on this? The article doesn't provide any links or source to this news from the JP government.

Thanks
