The Organization must, after deliberation by the preparatory committee, amend the specified-industry retirement allowance mutual aid rules in order to commence the operations listed in Article 70, paragraph (1), item (i) relating to the specified industry concerned, and obtain the authorization under Article 71, paragraph (2).

When the number of persons who have responded to the solicitation under the preceding paragraph reaches the number obtained by multiplying the number of small and medium-sized enterprises that carry on businesses belonging to the specified industry concerned by the rate specified by Order of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, the Organization must apply to the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare for authorization to commence the operations listed in Article 70, paragraph (1), item (i) relating to that specified industry.
