Japan's 'Imperial Household Law Amendment' Passed... First Time in 77 Years Since 1949 Key Point: Allowing Male Former Royal Family Members to Be Adopted into the Royal Family [Masakazu Sekiguchi / President of the House of Councillors: The bill has been passed with 184 votes in favor and 57 against.] The 'Imperial Household Law Amendment,' which regulates the succession to the Japanese throne, has finally passed the threshold of the Japanese Parliament. This is the first time the main provisions have been amended in 77 years since 1949. The core of the amendment is that male members of the male line of the former royal family can be adopted into the royal family. [Minoru Kihara / Chief Cabinet Secretary (October 30): It contains measures to allow adoption, which was previously not permitted for members of the imperial family, so that male members of the male line belonging to the imperial line can be recognized as members of the imperial family.] The amendment includes a provision stating that while they do not qualify directly, if a son is born to the adopted son, he can inherit the throne. If we consider the possibilities, it is projected that she will be related to the current Emperor by approximately 36 degrees of kinship, sharing an ancestor from 600 years ago. The Japanese Parliament has gone so far as to amend the law due to a sense of crisis that the royal succession could be severed. Article 1 of the Imperial Household Law stipulates that the throne shall be "succeeded by males in the male line." Currently, Emperor Naruhito has only one descendant: his only daughter, Princess Aiko. [Princess Aiko / (December 2004): I recognize that fulfilling one's duties while sharing joys and sorrows with the people is the fundamental principle and the spirit that must be cherished most.] The only young heir capable of inheriting the throne is the Emperor's nephew, born in 2006, who is the son of the Emperor's younger brother. However, there have been persistent criticisms that this decision by the Japanese Parliament is out of touch with public opinion, as it completely excludes the Queen from consideration. A recent poll by the Mainichi Shimbun showed that support for a female monarch exceeded 70%. Emperor Naruhito also indirectly criticized the idea in public. [Emperor Naruhito / (11th of last month): I hope that discussions regarding measures to secure the number of imperial family members will proceed in a direction that gains the understanding of the people.] Japanese media criticized the political establishment for stubbornly adhering to the principle of male succession in an outdated manner, despite Princess Aiko enjoying the support of the Japanese people.
