Article 14Presentation of Grounds for Adverse Dispositions

第十四条(不利益処分の理由の提示)

In rendering an adverse disposition, an administrative agency must indicate the grounds for the adverse disposition to the person subject to the disposition at the same time; provided, however, that this does not apply when there is an urgent need for rendering the disposition without indicating the grounds.

行政庁は、不利益処分をする場合には、その名あて人に対し、同時に、当該不利益処分の理由を示さなければならない。ただし、当該理由を示さないで処分をすべき差し迫った必要がある場合は、この限りでない。

In the case referred to in the proviso to the preceding paragraph, an administrative agency must indicate the grounds referred to in that paragraph within a reasonable period of time after the disposition has been rendered, excluding the cases in which the whereabouts of the subject person have become unknown and other cases in which there are circumstances that make it difficult to indicate the grounds after rendering the disposition.

行政庁は、前項ただし書の場合においては、当該名あて人の所在が判明しなくなったときその他処分後において理由を示すことが困難な事情があるときを除き、処分後相当の期間内に、同項の理由を示さなければならない。

When adverse dispositions are made in writing, the grounds referred to in the preceding two paragraphs must be indicated in writing.

不利益処分を書面でするときは、前二項の理由は、書面により示さなければならない。
