In paragraph 2 e. of its communication, Japan mentions that JR Kyushu is now financially independent. However, Canada notes that JR Kyushu has been granted a management stabilization fund of 3,877 billion yen from the national government, which will continue to subsidize the company beyond 1 April 2016. Furthermore, and contrary to what was done for the East, Central and West Japan Railway Companies, JR Kyushu is not required to reimburse the management stabilization fund to the Government of Japan. How does this fund affect the classification of JR Kyushu as a "financially independent" entity? Can the Government of Japan ask for reimbursement of the management stabilization fund in the future? At the time of the division and privatization of Japan National Railways, the Management Stabilization Fund was established in Kyushu Railway Company, Hokkaido Railway Company and Shikoku Railway Company respectively in order to stabilize their business with the investment profit of the Fund.
