The cabinet reshuffle for the first time Obuchi ( Japanese 小 渕 第 1 次 改造 内閣 Obuchi daiichiji kaizō naikaku ) ruled Japan under the leadership of Prime Minister Keizō Obuchi from the cabinet reshuffle on January 14, 1999 to a renewed reshuffle on October 5, 1999. Obuchi had Took over government business in July 1998. In November 1998, his Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) began coalition negotiations with the Liberal Party of Ichirō Ozawa , which were concluded in January 1999. The partner received a ministerial post in the new cabinet. At the same time, the cabinet was downsized by three ministers by transferring the management of several agencies to other ministers. This step was carried out in preparation for the restructuring of the central government, which took place in 2001.
The cabinet consisted of 16 members of the Shūgiin , the lower house, and two members of the Sangiin , the upper house, as well as a minister who was not also a member of the cabinet. Simultaneously with the beginning of the term of office of the ministers of state, the deputy cabinet secretaries ( Teijirō Furukawa , Mitsuhiro Uesugi and Muneo Suzuki ) and the head of the legislative office of the cabinet ( Masasuke Ōmori ) took up their offices.
