Kumamoto’s Itsuki-mura Likely to Adopt Performance-Based Salary System for Councilors


The members of the municipal council of Itsuki-mura, Kumamoto Prefecture, have agreed in principle on a plan to base their salaries on an evaluation of their performance. The residents will create a committee to evaluate the council members as “excellent”, “good”, or “ordinary”. It will be presented to the municipal council in March, and it is expected to be passed. The National Association of Chairmen of Town and Village Assemblies says they have never heard of a local assembly introducing a performance-based salary system, and think it is the first in the country.
