Petitions and Demanding Paper
Article 124 of the Local Autonomy Act requires that petitions or Seigan in Japanese submitted to an assembly be introduced by a member of the assembly. These petitions are treated as bills and the assembly makes a decision on whether to adopt or reject them. On the other hand, demanding paper or Chinjutsu do not need to be introduced by a member of the assembly, but they are not necessarily treated as bills.
Petitions should be written in Japanese language and should clearly state the purpose of the petition, the date of submission, the address and name of the petitioner (in the case of a corporation, the location of its office, its name, and the name of its representative), and be affixed with a seal. Petitions submitted to the assembly must be introduced by assembly members under Article 124 of the Local Autonomy Act, and one or more introducing assembly members must sign or affix their name and seal to the petition.
