Inflation countermeasures have come top of the list of policies the public wants the government to prioritize for a fourth consecutive year, according to preliminary results of a Cabinet Office public opinion survey on national life.
The Cabinet Office conducts the survey to gauge how people feel about their lives and what they want from the government. The preliminary figures were released on Sunday.
The survey asks respondents what they want the government to work on with particular effort, and "price measures" drew the most mentions, extending a run that now spans four years.
The Cabinet Office said the survey covers public awareness of daily life and requests made of the government. It did not give further breakdowns in the preliminary release.
