is a Japanese government practice defined under Article 2 of the Administrative Procedure Act of 1993 as "guidance, recommendations, advice, or other acts by which an Administrative Organ may seek, within the scope of its duties or affairs under its jurisdiction, certain action or inaction on the part of specified persons in order to realize administrative aims, where such acts are not Dispositions." Historically, the government of Japan employed this practice in imposing its policies on individuals and organizations, implying poorer treatment for those who failed to comply with its non-binding advice. The Act of 1993 was the firist statute to specifically regulate the practice of administrative guidance. Under the Act: * A government agency may not treat a person in an adverse manner solely because that person failed to follow administrative guidance (article 32.2). * Administrative guidance may not be used to pressure a petitioner into withdrawing or modifying a petition once they have indicated an intent not to do so (article 33). * The content of administrative guidance and the identity of the official responsible must be made clear to the counterparty (article 35.1). * Verbal administrative guidance must be followed by a summary in writing if the counterparty demands it (article 35.2). ==External links== * (Administrative Procedure Act ) (Japanese/English text) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Administrative guidance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
