Supplementary Provisions, Article 9

①In each business year from the business year that includes the day of establishment of the fund until the business year that includes the day on which the liquidation account was abolished pursuant to the provisions of the following Article, in the case where a liquidation account has been established, or until the business year that includes the date specified by Cabinet Order prescribed in Article 7, paragraph (1) of the Supplementary Provisions, in the case where a liquidation account has not been established, the fund must, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 79-69, obtain the authorization of the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance for the budget and financial plan for that business year prepared pursuant to the provisions of that Article, before the commencement of that business year (with regard to a business year that includes the day of establishment of the fund, without delay after the establishment of the fund). The same applies if the fund seeks to change them.
