Diet OKs citizen numbering

TOKYO, Japan - The House of Councillors votes on a bill to introduce a system that will allocate every citizen an individual number in the Diet in Tokyo on May 24, 2013, following approval earlier that month by the House of Representatives. Japan's parliament enacted the bill to more efficiently manage income, social security and tax information, although concerns remain over the potential for abuse of personal data.
