Takeshi Noda ( Japanese 野 田 毅 , Noda Takeshi ; born October 3, 1941 in Tokyo , Tokyo (now Suginami , Tokyo ) as 小 立 毅 Kodachi Takeshi ) is a Japanese politician, member of the House of Representatives for the constituency of Kumamoto 2 and former minister. He has been a member of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) since the 2000s, today the Ishihara faction ; previous affiliations were LDP → Kōshikai → "Liberal Reform League "NFPLPKP → Conservative Club.

Kodachi, son of a professor at Nihon Daigaku who died in 1945, graduated from the Tokyo University Faculty of Law in 1964 and then became a civil servant in the Ministry of Finance . In 1968 he was adopted by his father-in-law, the MP Takeo Noda from Kumamoto (before 1963 from Kanagawa ; MinseitōYokusan Seijikai →… → DVP →… → DPJ → LDP). He died in 1972, and in the 1972 parliamentary elections , Noda successfully applied for successor as one of five LDP candidates in the then five-seat constituency of Kumamoto 1. He was then re-elected 15 times in a row up to and including 2017 , after the electoral reform from 1996 in the new single-mandate constituency Kumamoto 2, 2003 and 2009 only in the Kyūshū proportional representation .

In June 1989 Noda became Minister of Construction in the UN cabinet , which, however , resigned in August after the Senate election defeat in July . In the Miyazawa cabinet he was Minister of Economic Planning from 1991 to 1992 . When the LDP formed the grand coalition in 1994, Noda left the LDP with other opponents of cooperation with the socialists and ultimately became a member of the NFP. When it was dissolved, he joined the Liberal Party. After the Senate election in 1998 , the LP entered into a government coalition with the LDP, and Noda was appointed Minister of Self-Government and Chairman of the National Public Security Commission in the Obuchi coalition cabinet until October 1999 .

When the LP split over remaining in the coalition in 2000, he was one of the proponents of continuing intergovernmental cooperation, the founders of the Conservative Party. There he was first general secretary, from 2001 party chairman. But when the Conservative Party was largely absorbed in the New Conservative Party in 2002, he left the party with some other members instead (temporarily Hoshu Club , "Conservative Club") and returned to the LDP. There he should initially share the candidacy Kumamoto 2 with Takeshi Hayashida alternately according to the "Costa Rica method" ( コ ス タ リ カ 方式 kosuta rika hōshiki ) and ran in 2003 and 2009 only in the Kyūshū proportional representation. After Hayashida's defeat in 2009, Noda became the sole LDP candidate in Kumamoto 2.
