経済産業大臣は、前受金保全措置として供託委託契約を締結している許可割賦販売業者が第二十七条第一項第一号から第四号までの一に該当するとき、又は第二十一条第一項の権利を有する者若しくは当該許可割賦販売業者から当該許可割賦販売業者が第二十七条第一項第五号若しくは第六号に該当する旨の申出があつたときは、遅滞なく、第二十一条第一項の権利を有する者に対し、六十日以上の一定の期間内に経済産業大臣に債権の申出をすべきこと及びその期間内に債権の申出をしないときは当該公示に係る前受金保全措置についての権利の実行の手続から除斥されるべきことを公示しなければならない。
If the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry issues public notice under the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the minister, without delay, must instruct the entrusted party under the contract on the entrustment of business deposits with the relevant licensed installment seller to make a business deposit for prepaid services based on that contract on the entrustment of business deposits by the last day of the period during which the filing of claims to which the public notice concerns must be made; provided, however, that this does not apply if the entrusted party has already made the business deposit for prepaid services on receipt of the instructions under the provisions of the following paragraph.
If the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry finds it to be necessary for the preservation of a person's claims arising under a contract for prepaid installment sales that the person has concluded with a licensed installment seller, the minister may instruct the entrusted party under a contract on the entrustment of business deposits with that licensed installment seller to make a business deposit for prepaid services based on the contract on the entrustment of business deposits within a designated time frame, in a case beyond what is prescribed in the main clause of the preceding paragraph.
If the entrusted party under a contract on the entrustment of business deposits is given an instruction under the provisions of the main clause of paragraph (2), it must make the business deposit for prepaid services based on the contract on the entrustment of business deposits by the last day of the period during which the filing of claims to which the public notice under the provisions of paragraph (1) concerns must be made, and if it is given an instruction under the preceding paragraph, it must make that deposit within the time frame designated pursuant to that paragraph.
When the entrusted party under a contract on the entrustment of business deposits makes a business deposit for prepaid services pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph, it must submit a copy of the deposit statement showing the receipt of the deposit to the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The provisions of Article 16, paragraph (1) apply mutatis mutandis when a deposit is made pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (4).
