中小賃上げへ「強力な助成」　「イート」来年大型連休まで―経済対策素案

　政府が１９日に決定する新たな経済対策の素案が１５日、判明した。岸田文雄政権が掲げる分配戦略の加速に向け、賃上げを行う経営体力を確保するために事業再構築や生産性向上に取り組む中小企業に対し、「強力な助成支援を行う」と明記。飲食店の需要喚起策「Ｇｏ　Ｔｏ　イート」事業や、イベントと商店街の支援事業は、感染状況を踏まえながら来年の大型連休ごろまで実施するとした。
　経済対策は「先進国の中で遜色のない成長を実現し、本格的なジャンプスタートを切ることが国民の購買力強化の面からも重要になる」と、成長と分配の両立に取り組む方針を強調。財源の裏付けとなる今年度補正予算と来年度予算を合わせた「１６カ月予算」で、足踏みが続く景気を下支えする。（2021/11/15-21:28）

The Japanese government plans to provide "strong aid" to small and midsize companies making efforts to revamp businesses and improve productivity to realize wage hikes, a draft of its economic stimulus package showed Monday.
   The aid program is aimed at accelerating the wealth redistribution policy of the administration of Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
   The government is scheduled to adopt the economic package on Friday.
   According to the draft, the government will continue its Go To Eat campaign supporting eateries hit by the novel coronavirus crisis and projects to assist event organizers and shopping streets until around next year's Golden Week holiday period between late April and early May, while looking at infection situations.
   The economic package will stress the government's plan to promote both economic growth and wealth redistribution, saying that it is "important to achieve growth equivalent to those of other advanced nations and make a full jump start on strengthening people's purchasing power," according to the draft.
