According to the National Governors'Association, the resolution was adopted at the National Governors' Association held in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture.However, during the discussion, Heita Kawakatsu, the governor of Shizuoka prefecture, raised doubts about the limitation of learning opportunities, and Governor Koike and Ryuichi Yoneyama, the governor of Niigata prefecture, also opposed the restraint of the increase in capacity.Opinions were disagreed on the first day of the meeting, and the resolution was postponed.
In the deliberation on the second day, the part of the resolution that says "I do not allow the increase in capacity" was corrected to "suppress", and the part that "suppresses the new expansion of faculties and departments" was deleted, Koike, The resolution was adopted in the form of clearly stating the opinions of Governor Yoneyama.

　At the request of the National Governors' Association, the government's meeting of experts set out the direction of restraint on the expansion of new universities in the 23 wards of Tokyo.In June, the government decided on this policy by a cabinet meeting, and is considering the ideal way of legal regulation with a view to enacting a new law.
In response to this, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology requested a review of 2018 private universities in the 23 wards, including Meiji University and Showa Women's University, which had applied for an increase in enrollment capacity from 12, but only one university responded. There wasn't.
There are strong complaints about the government's policy of citing only private universities as the 2018-year-old population is moving to the city center to survive the university in preparation for a sharp decline from 18.Meanwhile, the disorder of the Governor's Association, which proposed the restraint measures, is likely to have a great impact on the progress of laws and regulations in the future.
