旅行支援、年明けは１月１０日から　最大７０００円に縮小―観光庁

　観光庁は１３日、年明け以降の観光需要喚起策「全国旅行支援」を１月１０日から開始すると発表した。現在の割引率などを見直した上で行うもので、飲食店などで使えるクーポンも含めた１人１泊当たりの最大支援額は、従来の１万１０００円から７０００円となる。
　具体的な終了時期は、配分された予算に基づき各都道府県が決める。予算がなくなり次第、順次終了するが、観光庁は少なくとも今年度内は実施できると見込む。新型コロナウイルス対策の新たな行動制限が生じないことが前提。（2022/12/13-12:24）

The Japan Tourism Agency said Tuesday it will restart its nationwide travel discount program on a reduced scale on Jan. 10 after a suspension during the year-end and New Year holidays.
   Under the revamped program, aimed at boosting tourism demand battered by the coronavirus pandemic, the maximum amount of discount to be awarded to a tourist per night will be lowered to 7,000 yen from the current 11,000 yen, including shopping coupons that can be used at places including eating establishments.
   The prefectures will terminate the program when the budget allocated by the central government to them to operate it is used up.
   The agency expects the program will be available at least until the end of next March, on condition that there will no COVID-19-linked restrictions on people's movements.
   The discount rate for travel will be reduced to 20 pct from 40 pct while the ceiling on the discount amount will be lowered to 5,000 yen from 8,000 yen a night per tourist for tour packages that include public transportation services and to 3,000 yen from 5,000 yen for hotel stays only and single-day trips.
