Abstract
The Personal Information Protection Commission, as the administrative organization that is responsible for the protection of personal information in Japan, plays an important role not only in the implementation of policies related to the protection of personal information but also as a “command post” in charge of planning and formulating such policies (I). This paper traces its position and duties (II), jurisdiction over laws and guidelines (III), supervision and monitoring (IV), and international cooperation (V), and provides some theoretical analysis from the perspective of public law.
