デジタルで「日本改造」　投資呼び込み、今春に行程表―萩生田経産相

　萩生田光一経済産業相は６日、同省で開かれた会議で、デジタル基盤整備の全体像を示す「デジタル日本改造ロードマップ（行程表）」を策定すると表明した。２０３０年ごろを見据えた政策や技術の目指すべき姿を明確にすることで幅広く投資を呼び込み、産業競争力の強化と地方活性化を図る。他省庁と連携して春ごろに取りまとめ、「デジタル田園都市国家構想」などに反映させる。
　デジタル投資をめぐっては、岸田文雄首相が年頭記者会見で官民の投資を「倍増」させる方針を表明。萩生田氏は会議で、「日本全体をデジタル前提でつくり直すぐらいの大改革が必要だ」と強調した。（2022/01/06-19:26）

The Japanese government will create a road map around spring to present the overall picture of its digital infrastructure development plans, industry minister Koichi Hagiuda has said.
   By clarifying what it is aiming to achieve by around 2030 in terms of digital infrastructure-related policies and technologies, the government hopes to attract a wide range of investment, strengthen the country's industrial competitiveness and revitalize regional economies.
   The industry ministry will work together with other related government agencies for the compilation of the road map, which will be reflected in the government's so-called digital garden city nation initiative.
   At his New Year's press conference, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida called for doubling digital investments by the public and private sectors.
   In a meeting on Thursday, Hagiuda said, "A major reform that goes as far as remaking the whole of Japan digitally would be necessary."
